Nano Scale Artworks

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the i-thought-art-professors-graded-on-size dept.

Matthew Sparkes writes "This article is a list of the best nano-scale artworks. It includes a 15 micron wide badger, a ten micron long guitar (which was actually played) and a 120 micron long New Scientist logo. Of course these are the images that got released to the press. In labs around the world people must have used their bleeding-edge technologies to make structures just to impress their friends. I wonder how many scientists' significant others have received nano-Valentines on Feb 14th?"

    I wonder how many scientists' significant others have received nano-Valentines on Feb 14th?"

    Many -- it's an old trick.

    "Honey, for Valentine's, I made you a really beautiful, tiny guitar. The frame is from one piece! Here, take a look. Oh, wait, we need your laboratory-grade nano-scale microscope for this. You don't have one? Ah, crap, then we can't see it! Oh well, tough break, maybe we'll get a chance some other time."
