I hope you like my latest attempt at producing genomics-based art. I must start by thanking Pacific Biosciences for giving me over 300 SMRT cells to use in this project. I also need to say thanks to my daughter who helped glue them all on, it took almost two hours to finish.
At around $100 per SMRT cell then the model cost about $35,000 to complete!
Any offers? Donations to Cancer Research UK will be considered.
I was expecting it to be anatomically correct. Very pretty though, they look like swarovski crystals. Damien Hirst, eat your heart out!
