Here’s a nice and perspective-giving discussion on the recent “creation of a bacterial cell controlled by a chemically synthesized genome”.
It’s hosted by Edge, where you, according to the about page, “will find a number of today’s sharpest minds taking their ideas into the bull ring knowing they will be challenged. The ethic is thinking smart vs. the anesthesiology of wisdom.”
If you would like to know how the CGI of movies and tv is done, I totally recommend VideoCoPilot’s near brilliant collection of Adobe After Effects tutorials.
These tutorials actuallly manages to be informative, high paced and funny, as well. No easy task, indeed.
I thought you should know about the Dunning-Kruger Effect.
It’s such a nice effect.
Check out a couple of photos of the working chambers of the great George Bernard Shaw.
