Digital DNA is a seven-foot-tall (by five feet across) egg-shaped sculpture made of welded steel and recycled computer silicon circuit boards applied to polystyrene bead foam with an epoxy fiberglass skin, and finished with UV resistant polyurethane clear automotive paint. Sewn into the surface are phrases relating to technology in many languages (Arabic, Russian, French, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, etc.). It goes deeper into branching, but above all into the origins of what comes to be the adventure of computers. Therefore, through phrases like: "Circuits of Power", "Ideological Circuits", "Warfare Circuits", "Borderless Circuits", "Sexual Circuits", "Colonizing Circuits", "Genetic Circuits, etc, trying to simplistically verify, even if it is a glimpse of consciousness, one of the main tools-objects of our contemporary world.The "egg" is meant to recognize Palo Alto as the birthplace of Silicon Valley.  Linda Craighead, Palo Alto Arts Center Director, feels that the work represents "the power of technology to bring the world together."  Varella said of the design, "I don't want to preach truths, just trigger ideas. Lovers of Digital DNA say: "Digital DNA is the Identity of Palo Alto."
