electron transfer) sensing/switching as a design tool, b) the construction of a market-leading blood electrolyte analyzer and c) the invention of molecularlogic-basedcomputation as an experimental field, are delineated. Efforts to extend the philosophy of these approaches into issues of small object
identification, nanometric mapping, animal visual perception and visual art are also outlined.

Prologue
Colombo, Sri Lanka: A civil
possible information processors [56]. Then it dawned on me that the 'lumophore–spacer–receptor’ system could be elaborated into Boolean logic devices with chemical inputs and luminescence output. The first device, which initiated molecularlogic-basedcomputation as an experimental field, arose in the form
