On this site, you can see an interpretation of the periodic table of elements using symbols that are meant to illustrate the various particular aspects of each of the elements that comprise matter. Each of the 109 elements is accompanied by a visual image, as well as a description and history (including origin of name). The site is useful for the purposes of understanding the chemicals more deeply and remembering the elements and their attributes, but also for purposes of knowing and seeing art, and for reflecting on life as both complexly chemical and artful.
