Alexander Tsiaras is an artist and technologist who uses scientific visualization software to display human anatomy. In this talk from a recent TED conference, he shows the “mystery, magic, and divinity” of human development from conception to birth.

[...] Hattip to Joe Carter at First Things. A truly remarkable video showing the development of us humans from our conception to our birth. While I was watching it I thought of Psalm 139:14: I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
