Awesome 2D vid
Acorn – The Flood Pt. 1
2D? That’s what makes it awesome. I bet it would not have the same effect if it was in 3D or something else.
I thank Fang for posting this at Fly On!
This video is just totally cool, totally awesome and totally enigmatic. ‘Still don’t know what the song means though…
On human-whatever-species-else hybrids
I’m kinda curious about this concept and got more into it after reading James Patterson’s Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment.
People, uhm, scientists from Britain managed to prove that hybrid species is a possibility. They were able to create a 32-celled human-bovine embryo and are working to improve it. To the scientists, would-be scientists, wannabe scientists, this:
“Can the evince of both species features be manipulated?”
I mean, like in Maximum Ride, the human-avian hybrids were perfect in a sense that only the “wanted” features manifested. They didn’t look like ugly mistakes of genetic engineering. I mean, can genetic engineering really reach that?. Some recombinant life forms mentioned in Maximum Ride didn’t look so ugly – as defined. The director of ITEX, a human-galapagos tortoise hybrid, was perfect in a sense that it didn’t have tortoise-like body or something.
I guess, without much manipulation of the embryo, those recombinant life-forms would have looked hideous. They could have had bird feet, feathers all over their bodies, beaks, shells and whatever else unsightly. They would have looked like… mistake; like some other recombinants mentioned.
Now that’s what makes me wonder. And I want answers, explanations, or something.
Can genetic engineering really do that?
