Feel like there's been a solid contrast boost outside of the great use of color. Ambient occlusion added?

If there is big biotech announcement happening, #MolecularNodes is being used for it. I only had the realisation in the past day, but it's strange to have my software very quickly become the visual face for $100M announcements and massive scientific breakthroughs.
Every week, I find a new idea to steal from @NikoMcCarty -- I'm about to publishing a video about KaiC's circadian clock reaction based on a great article published in @AsimovPress .
But this is THE best idea to steal. Currently outlining how I could launch this by Q1 2026.
Another YouTube Channel Idea:
"E. coli Design." A whole series where you explain how to design DNA to change the behavior or appearance of E. coli cells. All you'd need is some equipment to transform cells, a microscope and camera, and some basic molecular biology equipment.
Some ideas for modules:
1. The basics of a transcription unit; inserting GFP into cells and watching them glow.
2. Using a base editor to change GFP into another color?
3. Engineering E. coli to spin around in circles.
4. Engineering E. coli to swim faster, or to grow larger, or to partition their DNA unevenly, etc.
... and then end the series with the repressilator and blinking bacteria or something.
You could inspire tens of thousands of future bioengineers and completely demystify this space. Plus it's so cool to directly show how DNA sequences can lead to physical, observable changes in the cell.
