- Typographer and illustrator Craig Ward heard an urban legend that "using the handrails on the subway is like shaking hands with 100 people." He decided to test that theory by sampling the bacteria on subway lines around New York City and photographing his findings. The results were striking and unconventional "portraits" of NYC commuters.

Learned of "Subvisual Subway Series" while listening to NPR "Science Friday." Having lived in NYC, I found this amazing! Great work, Chris.
There is a college course on this. it's called Arts and Sciences where people collaborate art and science to make something beautiful.
This is brilliant, amazing view of micro world.
This is so cool and original!
That was very interesting. I say swap walmart shopping cart handles.

Like shaking hands with 100 people who don't wash their hands.
