poor paramecium
Today I read this news: "Researchers at Stanford University develops 'biotic games' with living cells" It seems that it is possible to control the paramecium and amoebas, confined in an enclosure filled with fluid, by injectying chemicals which forces them to move at will collecting virtual points that are registered by a microprocessor. This really scares me, from the moment (in my humble opinion) we lose the ability to empathize with other living beings, and we believe in the right to control their lives as we please, just for fun. I think this is a really dangerous teaching for the future. So I decided to make this composition expressing my opinion on the matter hope you like (or dislike) it 
The text under the running man is just the same on the opening of the post: "Researchers at Stanford University develops 'biotic games' with living cells" _________________ Thank god for the google translator to help me not to make too many mistakes |

Re: poor paramecium
Love it, Dejá_vu. And, yes, I agree with you. I've just found this video from the Stanford University. How did you make the Pacman. 3D? If I were you I'd delete the red text. I'll give another comment this afternoon, have to go now. Stefano |

Re: poor paramecium
Thanks a lot for the video and the comment, Stefano. Well, I put the red text in order to make reference to the news headline which bring me the idea. And the 3d packman and all the enviroment is a photo from which I could't find the owner but there's a lot of versions over the net. All I've done is put the running man, the shadows, reflex and text together. I'd wish I would know to make 3d objects... _________________ There are men who struggle for a day and they are good.
