This has been done by synthesizing molecules that are 2-nm tall and resemble human formsâ€single-molecule figures with arms, legs, a torso, and a head. We call these figures Nanoputians. Through the three-dimensional animated chemical synthesis or appendage attachment of NanoKid's major body parts, the methodology, strategy, and art behind synthetic chemistry and nanoscale science can be conveyed in a non-intimidating, amusing, and aesthetically pleasing venue. Large-scale prints of these art forms are made that contain millions of the actual nanometer-sized molecules dispersed within their print medium. This is a new method of artistic representation wherein the visual analogue actually contains the invisible nanoscopic figures. A union is sought between the visual arts and chemical sciences in order to present chemical and nanoscale concepts to nonscientists; 5 ER -
