An Abstraction

{Liz started asking me about this picture, so I thought some details were in order. First, it is a SEM picture (from the bottom you can see it was done at 0.8keV, 25x mag (hella low btw), and at a working distance of 15mm). This is not a normal image, meaning the SEM doesn't normally do this, and it is a weird quirk of the physics of the thing. I will let you ponder how I did this, and get back with more info later. Oh and click on it b/c the full version is much crispier.}
