"As I write this, 17,500 nuclear warheads on Planet Earth are considered operational and at least 4,000 of them are on hair-trigger alert. The nations of North Korea and Iran are scrambling to add their own war- heads to the list. Pakistan’s government is becoming more unstable every day from the threat of a radical extremist takeover. Its current nuclear arsenal consists of over 100 warheads, armed and ready. Consider this: all it takes is the launch of one of them to cause a chain reaction that could annihilate hundreds of millions in a blink of an eye. Now consider the alternative: evolution."

In this exciting series we explore the multidimensional aspects of the transformational, healing, colorful, and beautiful butterfly.

Aluminum Sublimation
Sublimation onto metal is a new, cutting edge, way to reproduce an image, but has been used in the textile industry for decades. Sublimation itself is the process of going from a solid to a gas, back to a solid - skipping the liquid state.The image is first printed onto a transfer paper and then is adhered to pretreated aluminum (other substrates such as tile, wood, or glass are also available).The aluminum and transfer paper are placed into a custom heat press, which is heated to temperatures exceeding 380 degrees Fahrenheit. While being subjected to extreme heat and pressure, the dyes from the transfer paper turn into a gas, are pressed into the surface of the metal, and then solidify into the treated aluminum. As the dyes cool they are permanently infused beneath the surface of the metal substrate.
