Visualization through Interpretive Dance

Visualizations of all kinds are becoming a new literacy for understanding data, from crocheted coral reefs to tag clouds to digital heat maps. But that's only the tip of the iceberg. A friend just sent me this amazing video directed by Robert Alan Weiss for Stanford's Department of Chemistry in 1971. It's an interpretive dance re-enactment of protein synthesis called "Protein Synthesis: An Epic on a Cellular Level," filmed on Stanford's campus.
