The Garbage Bag Alien

(YouTube link)

Looks like someone built a homemade Alien xenomorph as a Halloween decoration. It’s not much to look at, but it moves, so it could be scary in the dark. But no… 

In this Stan Winston Studio ALIENS test footage, James Cameron directs SWS puppeteers as they manipulate a rough "proof of concept" Alien Queen made out of garbage bags, foam core, and ski poles.

So what we are really seeing is the birth of the Alien queen! I did not know they did this, but I’m glad it’s available for all to see. I learned about it in the post 15 Secrets of the Hollywood Creature Feature at mental_floss.

If you find this interesting you should go check out Bruce Lipton also, he explains how dna/rna/signals works very good:

That was extremely interesting. However, I am not sure about the application into antibiotics. It seems more like the idea would suppress the bacteria - making the world dependent on the bacteria inhibitors long term. I can see the short term applications of slowing disease, but I don't feel like there is a viable long term application in her presentation. I do believe it would useful and easier to use the molecules used to talk intra-species as a indicator of that species in the body. but I digress and concede that it was extremely fascinating.

@gtstiggy: That's what I thought too. I think she was talking about a "treatment" not a resolution. Also if you make bacteria grow and divide and become bigger population, race conditions for resources may start. Also depending on bacteria type, the hosted bacteria may produce biochemicals that are poisonous or harmful for the host with timely growing amounts. May be there are other biological things that modified sensing chemicals do on targets she do not talk about here.
