Microscopy UK presents: |
THE INSTITUTE FOR THE PROMOTION OF THE LESS THAN ONE MILLIMETRE |
Microscopic water organisms in 3D! The pictures are presented as red and blue anaglyphs so you need red and blue glasses to see the 3D effect. |
Between a colony and a multicellular organism: Volvox. |
The major
goal of the Institute for the promotion of the less than
one millimetre is to bring organisms normally neglected
because of their invisibility under the attention of a
wide audience. No longer will amazing creatures like 'Noctiluca
scintillans ' or 'Volvox aureus ' be regarded
as insignificant! Let the unicellulars rule the web! The Institute asked the renowned 'Foundation for Remarkable Photography' to develop techniques to present the microscopic world in three dimensions on the computer screen. The foundations photographic researcher Wim van Egmond took upon himself the task to make several portraits of the most wonderfull microscopic water organisms. |
