(It's important, I think, to not get too caught up for now in the nomenclature. They are one of those annoying reminders of how much we don’t know.
In other words, prions violate most of biology’s sacred rules. And once a prion is turned on, it can transmit its new, infectious structure to neighboring cells with no actual transfer of genetic material. Furthermore, Prions can switch states (turning themselves on) without any guidance from above they can change their proteomic structure without undergoing any genetic changes. One of these states is “active” and one is “inactive”. First, a definition: Prions are roughly defined as a class of proteins that can exist in two functionally distinct states (every other protein has only one natural state). In recent years, however, it's become clear that proteins with prion-like properties might play an important biological role in healthy tissue. Prions are still guilty of causing these horrific deaths. Prions were once regarded as the nasty pathogen for a tribe of the worst diseases on earth: Mad-cow disease, fatal familial insomnia (where you stop being able to fall asleep and after three months die of insomnia) and a host of other neuro-degenerative diseases. In the process, he stumbled into one of the most controversial areas of biology: He found what looks like a prion. from N.Z.Īs a coincidence we have a special post coming up later this week featuring a New Zealand artist from the past.Immediately, Si began looking for other molecules with similarly odd repetitions.
The persistence of memory meaning face Patch#
Thank you again to Andrew from the Hunter Valley Region who introduced me to the ceramic tiles being created by Imp Hung and who has assisted in many ways to bring these posts to you.Īs we farewell Imp Hung we conclude the purple patch week by welcoming our latest subscriber to the AnArt4Life blog who is our first from New Zealand - a very warm welcome to L.M.B. Running hard between the 12 markings on a clock face.Ī very special thank you Imp Hung who gave her permission for the images of her work to be shown on the post and who so willingly has shared her thoughts with us. May I use the past, present and future metaphor then?
Solid liquid, or gas - the 3 states of matter. The colour blue is no reflection of freedom. The still ocean surface conceals the turbulence beneath. When will spring bless the withered branches again? I tried softening myself - have and flowing with the rhythm of time.Ĭhanging of the seasons has lost its meaning. Time pulls at my anxieties - matter - day or night.
The persistence of memory meaning face how to#
I do not know how to cope with the desolation my dreams. "The Persistence of Memory" (after Salvador Dali) by Imp Hung © I was like wandering in time, looking at the clock.
"The Persistence of Memory" by Salvador Dali 1 One day I looked at Dali's "The Persistence of Memory" and envied the duck sleeping quietly in the painting. To conclude our review of the exceptional ceramic work being created by Imp Tsui yun Hung we are going to look at a tile she created after looking at Salvador Dali's The Persistence of Memory.Īfter I moved back to Taiwan from Australia, I couldn't adapt to the crowded living environment and the anxiety of the city.
