The combination of nanotech and art should possibly be the most fascinating topic of art we can enjoy today. And it is indeed cutting edge in both technology field and art field. The "best" and coolest hybrid of technology and art.
A C60 Molecule created by nanotech, photo credit to MSUDr.Zimgewski's lectures inspired me a lot on nanotechnology and I have understood that the most important and shocking, game-changing feature of the nanotechnology and nano materials is that the physical features of the material changes significantly at the nanotech level. According to Dr.Zimgewski, at nano level, the traditional physics laws, especially those on forces, can be dominated by other mechanisms such as surface tension thus change the characteristic of a material.
The above is a picture of a nano sculpture "Trust" by Jonty Hurwitz, in the sculpture, the women is dancing on a piece of human hair, the application of nanotechnology and art of sculpture is combined on this tiny sculptured women which cannot be seen by human eye.
nano gear by Eric Drexler, photo credit to IMM, Institution of Molecular ManufacturingThe nano gear designed by Eric Drexler is also fascinating, is involves the concept of molecular manufacturing, and engineering with atoms and molecules. That is a whole new ground of engineering and can be used in medicines and micro robots to conduct precise operations on our infected and disfunction body parts with no pain.
