Uhm did I just find a classical cover of katy perry’s E.T. say what??

THIS IS THE AUDITIVE VERSION OF CAS AND DEAN’S RLEATIONSHIP.

This is incredibly beautiful. 

I ought to find or make
as many classical covers
as humanly possible
(maybe slight exaggeration
for that last line)

Spectrum of Colours Revealed Through Lit String

British artist, physicist, and all-around science enthusiast Paul Friedlander produces kinetic light sculptures that provide a colourful feast for the eyes. Each piece in his body of work offers a visual medley of light and motion by rapidly rotating a piece of string through white light. The vibrating rope becomes invisible to the human eye, but colours from the light (which would normally be invisible to the naked eye) are revealed in rapid succession.

The scientific artist gives insight into the history of his career shift into the arts and explains the science in it all: “I decided to focus on kinetic art: a subject in which I could bring together my divided background and combine my knowledge of physics with my love of light. In 1983, at London’s ICA, I exhibited the first sculptures to use chromastrobic light, a discovery I had made the previous year. Chromastrobic light changes colour faster than the eye can see, causing the appearance of rapidly moving forms to mutate in the most remarkable ways.”

Because of the weight of the ends of the forks, and how they’re distributed behind the penny (closer to the glass), the center of gravity of the whole system is actually shifted quite significantly. If I’m right, it would actually have to be right where the penny meets the glass. This mean, in a sense, all the “weight” of the system of the forks and penny is resting right on that point, rather than out in the air, so if you balance it, it’ll be stable on the glass.

SCIENCE.

…….Close enough

The difference between Science and Engineering.

How to play with Guepiniopsis alpina, Guepiniopsis alpinus, Heterotextus alpinus…..what a confusion but this mushroom seems to have all these botanical names.

Anyway, this blight yellow jelly mushroom trembles with gentle tap.  It is fun!
