NanoGigaPan Project Turns Enhanced Bug Pictures Into Art
References: flickr & treehugger
The NanoGigaPan Project lets you see bugs in a way you’ve never seen (or perhaps never wanted to see) before.
The goal of the NanoGigaPan Project is to take “high resolution images of very small things.” Easy enough, but surprisingly artistic. With 400x magnified images of mosquito legs, cigarette filters, moths and ants, the work lets you see the true form of these minute beings. Take a look at the collection of black and white critters above, and play a game of ‘what is that a picture of?’

Trend Themes
1. High Resolution Microscopy - Opportunity to create innovative microscopy technologies that can provide higher resolution images of small things.
2. Artistic Scientific Imaging - Disruptive innovation opportunity to create novel ways of presenting scientific images for artistic purposes.
3. Small World Exploration - Petri dish explorers could collaborate with artists to create a new kind of scientific exploration using multimedia and visual art.
Industry Implications
1. Scientific Imaging - Opportunity for scientific imaging companies to embrace artistic expression as a new product offering for their clients.
2. Fine Art and Photography - Fine art can be inspired by the images of small organisms viewed through Microscopes. Photography companies can cater to the interest in the artistic nature of scientific imaging.
3. Educational Publishing - Opportunity to create educational materials for young readers that offer a vivid view of a small world that can inspire young minds.
