This was sort of an accident. I put the DNA into a solid glass dodecahedron,thinking of making one of those fancy object-embedded-in-glass paperweight thingies.
This is a plain CPK model, but with a world map texture-mapped onto the surface.It was riginally a demo for one of my commercial clients. They decided they wanted something a little different, so I put it up here
now that we all know the structure of DNA (right?), I can get a little more artistic. This is intended to be sort of an outdoorsy image, with each strand one color - brown and green for tree bark and leaves. Okay, so it's a little hokey... :)
