ChipWorks Silicon Art Galleries, hidden art in the traces of IC chips. The folk who found this have six (6) optical microscopes that provide them with the magnification required to do their analysis work. This ChipWorks place sounds pretty neat. From their FAQ

Can Chipworks reverse engineer contents of memory to extract algorithms from it?
Yes - many of today's systems contain programmable devices such as embedded processors, DSPs, or microcontrollers that execute from an internal or external program memory. Chipworks can analyze the code embedded in the program memory and extract an algorithm.
