We intended for you to be tricked and think that they're all symmetrical.
There are imperfections by design.
All of these forms and shapes and distribution of matter that you're looking at was entirely designed using a computational program.
So none of it is manual.
But long story short, the first collection is about the surface of the mask.
And the second collection, which you're looking at, is about the volume of the mask and what happens to the mask when all the colors from the surface, yes, enter the volume of the mask inside, create pockets and channels to guide life through them.
They were incorporated with pigment-producing living organisms, and then those organisms were templated to recreate the patterns of the original death masks.
And so life recycles and re-begins and so on and so forth.
The past meets the future, the future meets the past.
from the surface to the volume, from death to life, to death, to life, to death, to life.
And that, again, is a recurring theme in the projects that we take on.
But there, from a technological perspective, what was interesting is that we embedded chemical signals in the jet, in the printer, and those chemical signals
basically interacted with the pigment-producing bacteria, in this case E. coli, that were introduced on the surface of the mask.
And those interactions between the chemical signals inside the resins
And the bacteria at the surface of the mask at the resolution that is native to the printer, in this case, 20 microns per voxel, allowed us to compute the exact patterns that we wanted to achieve.
And we thought, well, if we can do this with pigments, can we do this with antibiotics?
If we can do this with antibiotics, could we do it with melanin?
And what are the implications?
Again, this is a platform technology.
Now that we have it, what are the actual real world implications and potential applications for this technology?
