Doesn't this require a physical package of some sort of bio material to be delivered to the cell, with electricity being used to open the cell membranes and push it through via ions? If I'm understanding that correctly, then how do you make the leap to optical-only transfer? It's almost as if you're claiming that an optical signal could somehow cause a buffer-overflow exploit in the cone/rod cells of a human eye, and then root the cell's "kernel" and start making run-time patches. And that sounds like a completely different scientific breakthrough than what this TNT stuff sounds like. could you elaborate any further?

Does sound interesting tho, just extrapolating but light/photons do contain energy and hence may just be able to initiate such an action. May depend on the type of display being used .
