Micropolitan Museum of Microscopic Art Forms
Every screenshotmaster artist needs a showcase. So, the Institute for the Promotion of the Less than One Millimeter proudly presents Mother Nature's most overlooked works of art -- previously visible only through a microscope -- now enlarged and reproduced for your viewing pleasure. Not to be outdone by upstarts like da Vinci and Dali, nature's handiwork is a testament to natural selection and eons of technical fine-tuning. Notice the intricacy and elegance found in her freshwater collection, rife complexity in the Diatom Depot, whimsy in the Ciliate Center, and festiveness Water Flea Circus. Over in the saltwater collection, we see an explosion of texture in the Radiolaria Lounge. This enigmatic microfossil shows she can be cryptic as well. The fascinating egg chamber reveals gestating ideas, while the algae exhibit blatantly displays her full range of talent and emotion. (in Biology)
