Faris, a Syrian roses seller boy who was killed by an air strike. So people decided to draw a picture of him upon a building wall in Germany to keep his memory alive.

Microbiologists Create ‘Starry Night’ And Other Art With Bacteria For First Microbe Art Competition

American Society for Microbiology | microbeworld.org | Facebook

SEE THE LEGENDS

The American Society for Microbiologists recently hosted its first international ‘Agar Art’ challenge in which microbiologists from around the world used various microbes and germs to create beautiful works of art in petri dishes. The submissions included recognizable paintings like Van Gogh’s ‘Starry Night’ as well as original microbe paintings.

The scientists used nutritious agar jelly as a “canvas” for their colorful microbes. While they do add an element of randomness as they grow, they can also do things that paint cannot – some of them emit bioflourescent light under certain conditions, while others, guided by the scientists, grew into perfect tree-branch patterns or jelly-fish tentacles.

For more about the process behind art like this, read about the work of Tasha Sturm, a microbiologist who used an agar dish to capture the germs on an eight-year-old boy’s hand. Source: boredpanda

A bit more LOTR. Tom Bombadil - slightly mad, ancient, wise, powerful, friendly, helpful. I could not bring myself to give him big yellow boots, so I gave him a yellow sash for his hat instead. Watercolour.
