Melecular Modeling Series
     
This work is the result of collaboration with a "biofuels team" at my university. My part of the project was to become fluent with current forms of molecular visualization and develop expressive images that were derived from and/or related to actual molecular models. The work submitted is part of a series that currently has 26 iterations.
