And that got us to work on melanin.

And melanin also is sort of an output from the death mask.

So it's lots of things happening at the same time and really allowing them to come together to form

this view about the world through the lens of a spirit being or a living being or a material, and then focus on the world through the lens of that material.

The glass work was another project like that where we were fascinated by glass because obviously it's superb material for architecture.

But we created this new glass printing technology for the first time that was shedding light on

The biomechanics of fluid glass, the math and the physics of which was never done before, which was so exciting to us.

But revealing new knowledge about the world through technology, that's one theme.

The reincarnation between things material and immaterial, that's another theme.

You have these heroes, you have these characters, and you put them together, and there is a narrative, and there is a story.

Whenever we start a new project, it has to have these ingredients of simultaneous complexity.

It has to be novel in terms of the synthetic biology, material science, robotics, engineering.

All of these elements that are discipline-based or rooted must be novel.
