DNA wallpaper for your iPhone by France’s Helys

by shilpa

This is slightly spooky but also really creative. With the idea to use modern technology with modern art, namely DNA art, French Company Helys came up with a striking idea – a DNA wallpaper for your iPhone. Yes, your very own DNA display to prove it IS your very own phone – your own genetic image. The company sends a DNA test kit to you through mail which includes a mouth swab to collect your saliva genes. Then they create your 100 dpi DNA image and then you receive a stylized genetic image through email. How thoroughly simple.
