A Copper-Oxygen BondIf you thought Science was pure cut and dried logic, you've got another think coming my friend! The world may well be all set to explore the art of science - the beauty of science. And if it's not then it should!
If you think back, the relationship is not as odd as it sounds. After all, it took an oyster to give man his first pearls, and it took technology to give him his second pearls and diamonds, so to say.
But the point I am making here deals with a different contribution of science - the artistic spurt that it may give to imaginative jewelry designers. Now that man has explored deeper with Microscopy, X-ray crystallography and NMR technology and taken a closer look at the symmetry of a double strand of DNA or the amazing angularity of bonded organic compounds, his aesthetic senses must be getting tickled.
See for yourself the natural diamond-head of the bacteriophage or the intricate pattern of the myxobacteria species. Look at the unique shape of the t-RNA strand. Take one keen glance at the representation of cosmic waves.
I can almost imagine a mannequin wearing a t-RNA pendant suspended from a double-strand DNA chain round her throat, with a bacteriophage teeka on the forehead, covalently bonded carbon atoms in her ears, an adenovirus topped bracelet, a cosmic-wave ring, an alpha-protein helix styled waistlet, armlet or anklet!
Physics chips in, so does Chemistry. Biology was already there and now makes it's presence felt with advances in Molecular Biology and Microbiology.
Will Science give a new dimension to Art, soon? Any professional jewelrs listening? 'Cause what I showed here was merely the tip of an iceberg! Just remember how many millions of species we have on earth and how many billions are still awaiting explorators and taxonomists!

jewellers+scientists==a deadly futuristic combination......
i think very soon jewellers will start appointing scientists as their designers......
so deepti ji..get ready for some job offers on a gold plate!!!!
wow.this is a nice idea.being a jeweller i can feel it has potential.what about posting this in the jewellery designing community. so that the idea can reach to the people in the business.
Interesting Observation, Good Post.
It reminds me one of my favorite teacher. He used to told us, If you want to be a very good engineer take inspiration from own body.

@Saurabh
Thanx man..why don't u!
@Theinx piyush...recommend me to a good jeweler friend of yours.
Yes Kabir. Remember, 'A doctor is the best engineer'!
hey deepti.i gave the link of this article in the jewellary designin community. i hope u wont mind.
hey guys....cool idea...liked it...being a designer,i have done it earlier also....
wanted to tell u about...world's 1st precious gemstones christmas tree.....

@saurabh
Man, quite enthu of u! I meant it lightly, but no worries.
@Karan
Sure, i'll chk out the community
10 points on why art needs to ape science in making..???
Doctors are the best engineers...
So I am getting a double degree....[:P]
Beautiful presentation.....
@Viv..sure, some day :)
@Ramyangshu - bask in it man! its not everyday people get double degrees :)
thats a nice thought as now a days the latest jewellery designs will be more on 3 dimentional views or on very technical base the you idea is the perfect one from my point of view...you must be aware of the mattulergy, casting and allyoing are the parts where you have to apply yourself like scientist..thanks
