My Decision

Hey Everyone,

I was thinking about things that would be cool and artistic to make a protein structure out of, and fabric came to mind.  We had talked about spider silk in my chemistry class, and how it was so fine and yet 3x stronger than Kevlar, so I looked up spider silk proteins and found some cool pictures of what the proteins look like stretched out.  I was thinking that I could make the protein structure with silk, and the side chains could be the fake halloween spider webs because that’s what they look like 🙂
