Linked to a supercomputer as a server for cell interaction. Distributed to public for peer computing. A cell to one computer.

Generally cells are complex with mitochondria etc. and the model I am proposing is an exploration almost to the molecular level.

       The most amazing thing is that each cell 'knows' it's exact place in the organisation, and it's survival depends on the co-ordinated function of all the cells.
To me, considering the number of cells, it's quite simply mind boggling in complexity and subtlety.
