I wonder how much control each has over the body.

Don Juan is the physical manifestation of a pimp style stereotype come to life. You may recognize him from the background of one of Snoop Dogg’s many appearances. Juan has been in the business for decades but his only personal release is a compilation album of 70’s and 80’s soul classics released 2006 entitled, Green is for the Money, Gold is for the Honeys.

I’m sure you’ve heard the saying “if god wanted man to fly, he’d have given man wings;” well this monkey’s got wings.

Get an extinguisher.

Look, obviously these cops must be aware they all have dash cams nowadays. You would think they’d be able to use a little bit of critical thinking and get off camera before doing their beating. I don’t mean to scrutinize; this is no doubt excessive, but the guy was obviously resisting and probably deserved a good shot to the face, but if you’re gonna knock him silly and kick him while he’s down, at least have the foresight to cover your ass.

Sachiko Kodama, a Japanese artist, has created something truly unusual. What you’re seeing is a liquid infused with metallic particles that have magnetic properties. When a magnet is introduced, you see the shape of the magnetic field as the liquid aligns itself.

Through a coordinated choreography of magnets and liquid Kodoma has produced a number of videos and art exhibits displaying a unique look at something we take for granted on a daily basis. Magnetism is everywhere and it seems as though we need something striking to remind us of how beautiful physics can be.
