Thru the Microscope


Some of my favorite art comes directly from science. I'm especially fond of microscopes - both as a tool, and as industrial design. They uncover tiny worlds that move largely unseen and were undiscovered until the invention of this device.

We can thank Robert Hooke for the Microscope, and for uncovering that tiny world.

Read Hooke's Microphagia, complete with drawings of microscopic creatures.
