Go Here Now // Scientartist Gary Greenberg Takes A (Much) Closer Look at Everyday Objects

                     

If we know our audience, it's one that's consistently interested in the intersection between art and science. So in that vein, we're urgently pointing you towards Mr. Gary Greenberg (as you can see, we're so excited with his findings that we've made up the word "scientartist"). 

Greenberg began as a photographer and filmmaker before earning a PhD in biomedical research from London's University College. He focuses his miscroscope on everyday objects and reveals them in an entirely new light. The work in particular that's grabbed our attention is his recent work with sand. Yes, those gorgeous, space-like objects up top are in fact, grains of sand.

Be warned though: While visiting Greenberg's site, you may fall down a rabbithole, clicking through photos for several hours, forgetting the about the outside world (not that we know from personal experience). We do know however, that you'll never look at those long walks on the beach the same way.  Get there now.
