In looking for the whites of their eyes...

What exists in the intimate mingling of art and science is truly amazing.
At M.I.T. they're visualizing viruses. It's interesting to consider the question "What does the trojan fucking up my computer actually look like?" The fact that this work is being commissioned by internet security professionals as a way of showing the customer what they're up against also speaks to the ever-increasing visual nature of our culture.

Icons are what we know best.
