Scientists have created living photographs made of bacteria, genetically engineering the microbes so that a thin sheet of them growing in a dish can capture and display an image. Black and white picture projected onto a film of E Coli produce a visible living image. This process takes at least 3 hours to complete. Scientist are interested in this type of research because it furthers synthetic biology and the possible production of living cellular machines Source: http://www.theage.com.au
