Today's #FebruArty theme is "magenta". This is an illustration we made for the University of Vienna, showing strings of entangled qubits. The journal article on Blind Quantum Computing (published in Science) can be viewed here: arxiv.org/abs/1110.1381 #SciArt More projects: e-nox.net/portfolio/

Today's #FebruArty theme is "socks", so I made a SOX gene, which is a transcription factor that binds to the minor groove of DNA. Made in #Blender and #MolecularNodes #SciArt More projects: e-nox.net/portfolio/

Today's #FebruArty theme is #FishyFeb, and I'm lacking fishy pics, so I made this fish inflammasome disc, which are protein structures involved in sensing inflammatory signals, and triggering the immune response. Made in #Blender and #MolecularNodes #SciArt More projects: e-nox.net/portfolio/

Books designed to be read only by human eyes are different from books designed to be read by machines, which is why Google will tell you that the phrase “shake my booty” can be found in an 1863 English translation of Don Quixote.

Today's #FebruArty theme is "glasses", so here is a test project, the first I ever made in #Modo, exploring its refraction/caustic abilities. It's a planetary gearbox, not that you can really tell - but it has lots of interesting internal geometry! #SciArt More projects: e-nox.net/portfolio/

Today's #FebruArty is #SensoryArt's theme of "rough". These are some rough versions of an illustration: 3D scene in #Modo, (2) render, (3) compositing. Our work massively improved once we learned to worry less about rendering, and more about compositing #SciArt More projects: e-nox.net/portfolio/

Fordite, also known as Detroit agate, is old automobile paint which has hardened sufficiently to be cut & polished. It was formed from the built up of layers of enamel paint slag on tracks & skids on which cars were hand spray-painted (a now automated process), which have been baked numerous times.

It might hurt my bottom line, but I’m probably going to stop posting art to Twitter entirely and I suggest you do too. Not only is the site actively putting a “Okay, now remix this” button below art (and elevating them above the OP with a QRT) and it’s false flagging original art as made by AI.

Today's #FebruArty theme is #FishyFeb, so I made an image of fish aquaporin, which are protein channels that help maintain water balance in the fish's body. Alpha helices are shown in blue, loops in yellow. Made in #Blender and #MolecularNodes #SciArt More projects: e-nox.net/portfolio/

From 2019, #paleoart of the asteroid-induced tidal wave that crashed into the southern coast of the United States at the end of the Cretaceous period. It's probably not shown large enough here, even though it dwarfs the giant titanosaur Alamosaurus. #sciart #paleontology #extinction

"Rings" is too good a #FebruArty theme to only post once, so here's an illustration we made of space objects around the Earth (working/defunct satellites, rocket bodies, other bits and bobs). You can see a ring of geostationary satellites, and a shell of low earth orbit satellites. #SpaceArt

Today's #FebruArty theme is "rings", so it had to be Saturn, which we made after being inspired by the Cassini backlit Saturn photo (www.jpl.nasa.gov/images/pia17...) #SpaceArt Taken from an animation series we made of Saturn: e-nox.net/portfolio/sa...

not paying indirect costs for research is like only paying the players in the Super Bowl. can't have a Super Bowl without coaches, referees, security, janitors, announcers, stadium staff, and a stadium - and you can't have research without supporting people and facilities

Today's #FebruArty theme is "eyes", so here are the eyes of Sauron - also known as "optical tweezers" in the original Elvish. These can trap qubits, to then perform quantum operations. Like how the One Ring pulls you in until you've done what it wantses. #SciArt More projects: e-nox.net/portfolio/

This is a recent project we've been working on for Microsoft Research, visualising their matter simulation tools. They use iterative AI to predict useful materials, which can then be tested. We made a lot of crystal structures and fuzzy-wuzzy animations: www.microsoft.com/en-us/resear...

Today's #FebruArty theme is "purple". Sticking on the theme of Lego, we made a cover for Science with an engineered bacterium made of Lego. Pretty sure I wasn't going to make it onto the cover as an academic, but as an illustrator it was a bit simpler! #SciArt More projects: e-nox.net/portfolio/

Joining in with #FebruArty (what's next, M'Arty?), with what appears to be a free choice #BlueSkyArtShow Illustration for Berkeley, for a combinatorial approach to synthetic biology. Different genes are tweaked in each bacterium and the most successful are selected, and the process repeated.
