Gallery: Building Better Einstein Fan Art—Using His Greatest Equations
Illustrations by Sienna Morris01Einstein
Morris' drawing of Albert Einstein was illustrated using Einstein's best contributions to science—from the theory of relativity to the photoelectric effect.
Illustrations by Sienna Morris02Bioluminescence
The fireflies in BIOLUMINESCENCE are drawn using the chemical formula for luciferin, the compound that makes them glow.
Illustrations by Sienna Morris03Cello
CELLO was drawn using equations for the speed at which sound travels parallel to the grain of each wood, strung with strings made of the Hertz frequencies of individual notes.
Illustrations by Sienna Morris04Prime Directive
This piece, called PRIME DIRECTIVE, is STAR TREK's classic Starfleet insignia drawn with, naturally, prime numbers from 2 - 13,099.
Illustrations by Sienna Morris05Centaurus A
Half of this illustration of the Centaurus A galaxy was drawn using its coordinates, its distance in light years, and its red shift. The rest was drawn using equations that can be used to calculate that data.
Illustrations by Sienna Morris06Falling to Pieces
This is one of Morris' earlier pieces, done entirely using the numbers on a clock to represent the passage of time.
07Heart
Morris' heart is illustrated using numbers and symbols for equations for stroke volume, cardiac output, and ejection fraction.
Illustrations by Sienna Morris08Schrodinger's Cat
Morris illustrated Schrödinger's cat using Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.
Illustrations by Sienna Morris09Universal Proprioception
Morris' UNIVERSAL PROPRIOCEPTION is her self-portrait done with 37 points of data. "It's meant to be a road map, basically, of where I'm going and why I'm doing it," she says.
