DNA Origami Kit
by Bret Victor, Shawn Douglas, Luke Iannini
Designing DNA origami shapes by snapping together a physical scale model.
A routing diagram is shown in isometric and plan views. The shapes can be picked up in a mock test tube, tumbled with the laser pointer, and viewed on a simulated gel.
Demo excerpted from the annotated video Biomolecular design in Realtalk (2022).
Uses the DNA origami blocks (2022).
Part of the Biomolecular design (2022) prototypes.
