I’m using an old paper tape punch machine to print out (5% of) the human genome. The punches are from the early 80s, and it’s really neat to be able to physically see each bit of data. The plan is to fill up a room with the punched tape, sort of mirroring a strand of dna and giving you a sense of just how large the genome actually is.
Unfortunately I’m having a hell of a time finding space to print in. May just end up finding some commercial warehouse space on Craigslist
