A fascinating organic animation by CGI artist Markos Kay that explores the idea of primordial life, and the unique lipid world hypothesis.

Kay’s animation feels scientific and artistic at the same time, with a unique, macro look at swelling organic forms and microorganisms.  Really unique and thought-provoking animation work.

“These bilayers would have acted like tiny bubbles or bags, enclosing and protecting the chemical reactions that would eventually give rise to life”
