Random Thoughts
Cell signalling
Chemistry vs Photonics, Electric, Sound
Chemical signalling allows the signal to carry methods of transformation (essentially code) in addition to communicating state.
Other
IKKB protein and the reversal of insulin resistance
Programming Atoms
Is it engineering or programming?
'Simple' building blocks coming together to create complex interactions
Emergence
Extensible, Reused, Re-factored, Re-appropriated, Hijacked
Contaminate, Corrupt, Desecrate, Mutate, Profane, Taint, Tarnish.
Life seems without qualms to re-appropriate pieces for completely different tasks.
Pragmatic.
I think I'm going to end this tangent here.
Light
Photons are absorbed when they correspond to the difference in energy between two different possible electron states. Observed colours are the inverse of the objects ability to absorb photons.
