I watched Fruitvale Station last night and let me tell you this movie is incredibly powerful, raw, and emotionally gripping - I was glued to every scene. This is based on a true story of Oscar Grant who was shot by Police on Jan 1 2009 at the BART station in CA.. #moviereview #blueskymovies #crime

Proteins are dynamic structures, but structural biology often shows them as static snapshots. Inspired by long-exposure photography and generative art, I built ProteinCHAOS, an artistic tool inspired by molecular dynamics to capture protein flexibility over time, much like long-exposure images.

First time I've been tempted by AR glasses.

I have to use sheer force of will to not go on ebay and buy every single miniature model that salespeople used to carry around for cold calls and meetings. The idea of being a neon salesman in the 1930s with a briefcase of tubes with onboard electricity is just such a wonderful different world.
