The biomedical visualization studio Visual Science has created the first scientifically accurate 3D model of the Zika virus at atomic resolution. The model is based on the latest scientific research into the structure of Zika and related viruses such as Dengue, West Nile, and yellow fever. It's the most accurate model of the Zika viral particle currently available. To produce it, Visual Science employed the same techniques of structural bioinformatics used in basic research and drug development. The model reflects scientists' current understanding of the virus's architecture. It includes 360 distinct surface protein structures, the lipid envelope, and the likely structure of genetic material in complex with capsid proteins. Previews of the model are attached to this e-mail. Short video fragments, an interactive web application are available upon request. The Zika virus model was created by scientists and CGI specialists at Visual Science, a world leader in scientific visualization that specializes in micro- and nanoscopic objects and processes.

October 27th marks the 21st anniversary of the release of the classic film "Powder" directed by Tim Burton. I thought I'd take a look back and remember some of the cool stuff they put in the movie. It's important because it's filled with character dialogue, a great message, hope for humanity, and more. I hope you enjoy my take on it. If you're not familiar with the video essay format, don't worry, you'll catch on quick, it's just me talking over awesome footage from the movie. Maybe you'll even be inspired to make your own video essay -- it's important that we have millions of video essays or film culture is in deep shit. For every movie or movie topic, there should be at least 5 video essays. Thanks! If you enjoyed this essay and would like to support movies, please consider purchasing a hat that says 'movies' on it: moviesbrand.com/the-movies-collection/movies-hat
