Science vs Delirium: Psychedelic Portraits of Great Thinkers [Gallery]

Simon Bent knows science is awesome. The Melbourne based graphic designer also knows that there’s not nearly enough popularity for some of history’s greatest minds in pop culture, so he put together this series of 60s-era, trip-tastic portraits of a handful of scientists and inventors from history.

SCIENCE VS DELERIUM IS A SERIES OF ILLUSTRATIONS CELEBRATING SOME OF THE GREATEST SCIENTISTS IN HISTORY. THE SERIES WAS CREATED TO RE-POPULARISE THESE ICONIC FIGURES.

I’d love to see a series featuring modern scientists, but for now Darwin will be the wallpaper on my phone.
