Tranquil evening in the mesh sandbox


One of the other tools I've begun to appreciate more is Screenr. This short clip shows the structure of a pair of Escherichia coli ribosomes in one of their two native arrangements in polysomes (top-to-top in this case). It starts with the view in UCSF Chimera, then MeshLab and finally in SL. I am plainly not much good at machinima but that's not the point. It was easy and fun to make and stimulated me to investigate something I didn't know.
