A few days back The Big Picture ran a massive photo of something microscopic... Obama. Although Obama and microscopic make for an oxymoronic duo at the moment, University of Michigan researchers decided to use Obama's mug to represent nanotechnology. According the The Big Picture "For visualizing the scale, most measurements below are in microns - one micron is a millionth of a meter - human hair is approximately 100 microns thick. " Obama is in the ether.

The Big Picture also constructed a gallery of other microscopic visions...

After talking to Matt Sayles last night, we both agreed that Callie Shell should become Obama's personal photographer. Her intimate portraits of the next president are unparalleled. Check out her work on The Digital Journalist.

In case you haven't checked out some of the content that Pixcetera has been running during the past DNC and RNC, I would advise perusal.

The Obama pano is alongside Hillary in the DNC Panos gallery, looking oh so fabulously Hellenistic.

Some audio updates, thanks to Dave Rogowski, from the last days of the DNC, including a powerful statement from actor Richard Dreyfuss, and a song from Melissa Etheridge.

Audio and image outtakes from outside the RNC. Featuring ice sculptures, cardboard birds, spiky hair, and more.

A disco-hall revival with a colonial dress-up contest.. no just kidding, it's Ron Paul's Rally for the Republic shot by Jennifer Midberry. Gotta love the shot with Paul supporter throwing up his rock-and-roll index finger like the cover of a Pearl Jam album....
