When I saw this anim.
It's fairly large, FWIW.

What I thought when I watched that was "this is how the Borg must build
their ships".

If you liked this, you should read "Diamond Age" by Neil Stephenson.

Funny how the machines that move atoms have much smoother surfaces than
the atoms. I find it also interesting to see that in their vision it
should look like a miniature lego version of a factory. They have done
their best not to use the solutions that nature has 'invented'.
Particularly the fact that rigid parts are moving around in stead of
using conformation changes in molecules. Anyway, technically this whole
animation is of such a quality that I did not expect Rusty, John would
have done a much better job.

I thought that animation was fantastic too. Might have been posted here
already.

Yes that is more believable than rotating round wheels with just enough
space to fit a molecule in. Much better lighting, good use of focal
blur. Still not a place where I would expect Rusty, but a fantastic
animation nevertheless.

possibly, I have seen it before.

I tried downloading this, but I'm on dial-up and the animation is huge.

John

It is. I especially loved watching the transport molecules that looked like
walking.
It clearly shows that the life is actually a perfectly mastered nanosystem. The
ribosomes are the perfect processors, and what's for sure the program is
incredibly complex and stored on a very stable medium, counting the recovery
mechanisms in (imagine a floppy disk in a strong magnetic field keeping its
data intact for hundreds of years. That's what we are now, in a solar microwave
oven).
It makes you want to know the Creator of the human cells (and everything).

I just saw part of that animation in a program BBC4 by Michio Kaku.
I also disagree with some of the other claims in this program, then
again I am not a futurist.
