Journal

Experiments with Sachiko's Blood

simple blood swipe. pierced with a sterile syringe and wiped onto a glass slide. 2x higher magnification should easily be possible be putting the lens further away. still clearly the red blood cells can be seen.

Human epithelial cells

By scratching inside of your mouth/cheek you can obtain some of your own epithelial cells. you can use some tissue, a toothbrish or a wipe-thingy. just wipe them onto a glass slide. some of them roll up, while other then adhere to the glass slide and can easily be seen with the diy microscope.

pd - microscope

Pure Data

Pd (aka Pure Data) is a real-time graphical programming environment for audio, video, and graphical processing.

we developed open source software for microscopy and motion detection:
