    I make 3D animations of the molecular world inside our cells, using scientifically accurate molecular structures. I love what the film makers have done here ie explain complex scientific concepts using simple paper cut outs and moving lights. Adorable and memorable. Just because something is technologically advanced, does not make it a better tool for communication and engagement. It's about knowing your audience and what they need and will respond to.

    Nicely done. Fascinating work.

    So... these geobacter end up reducing the minerals so the metals can be isolated?

    These "conductive wires" sprouting out of a geobacter, do they conduct electricity the same way neurons do?

    Am i missing something, don't all cells produce current, charge, electricity?

      Biology is run by moving energy, but normally it’s through chemical-potential energy
      Here, it’s like if you stuck a wire into your body, instead of eating or breathing

      You are missing something: a personality, mainly, and discernment. If you can’t recognize the not so subtle differences between our own biological relationship with electromagnetism and a microbe with nano wires feeding on acidic vinegar, stealing its electrons, then instead of discharging its newfound negative charge in some wasteful way-its homemade nanowires specifically grasp onto a mineral, discharges its electrons until this mineral dissolved into its trace metals-freeing that iron to enrich the soil or participate in any one of countless other biological processes or entities.
      Electronic bio waste.

    This was utterly astounding and interesting. Kudos on the excellent artwork.
    In a paradigm of gravity, I’ve always suspected that our limited point of view-constrained by our particular scale, particle horizons, among other things-will give way as the years pass to the much more important and fundamental role of electromagnetism. Its mysteries still abound it seems even as progress continues. Incredibly interesting.

    Imagine, perhaps electromicrobiologists could lead the way to combat abrupt climate change reducing CO2/heat trapping gases. Perhaps.

    In the age of AI and advanced CGI, we're using paper cut outs to illustrate these biological processes ⚡ 🦠

      We are. We use a variety of animation in our films. Just because something is more technological doesn't mean that it more accurately represents a complicated biological process. The microbiologists and educators who have seen these films found the representations clear, dynamic, engaging, and memorable - all essential elements of a successful approach to science communication.

      In a world with AI, we need more human beings with artistic merit who don’t follow the easier more expedient beaten path-boring and average-but forge their own. Like these students who made this.
      Unlike cynical, non-personalities in the grips of pubescence both biologically and metaphorically. Like you.
