Abstract
Although there has been a great deal of research on DNA, DNA visualisation has been long overlooked. This paper studies current techniques for 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional DNA visualisation and other relevant areas such as music and fractals. The paper then presents a new approach to displaying DNA data. An algorithm is designed and implemented with OpenGL to manipulate and display unique DNA strings. Unique colourings are applied to each part of the string. The output is customised and offers the option to animate the DNA string over time. The results are examined and future areas of work recommende
