So far, the Caltech researchers have sequenced 40 of fibroblast interferon's amino acid "pearls." When the structure of the chain is fully determined, which it probably will be before the end of 1980, chemists will try to re-create IF in the laboratory. That promises to be a difficult...
Sometimes a very interesting synthesis emerges. Melvin Edwards' small sculptures, made of scrap iron forged and welded together, have a strongly totemic flavor. They allude to the once common practice of bricolage in West African tribal art, whereby mixed scraps of junk (nails, tin, cartridge cases and so forth...

They have been working together for two years and on this particular project for nine months. Their work will appear in...
