Gas - Microscopic

Remember GAS 0095? Title link takes you to a video of the track Microscopic on Synthwire. It's pretty amazing, trust me. Just go check it out.

  1. Truely mesmerizing. However, i did not like their math. What comes after nine hundred and ninetynine millions... Its not a thousand millions - its a billion, right? And Angstroms? - Why not use fractions of the planck length.... And then the video could have ended at 1 planck length with a shivering string ;-) Well, well truely amazing video.

  2. I have a book with very similar if not the same pics as used in the video...I think it's called "Powers of Ten" or somesuch.

  3. It is amazing to think that the Powers of Ten movie was created in the 1960s before computer graphics.

  6. The husband-and-wife team Charles and Ray Eames made quite a lot of amazing films, "Powers Of Ten" is one of my favorites I first saw it in first grade some years ago. Many years later, Scientific American made a nice companion book.

    The Eames were *way* ahead of their time in many fields...

    All their films are now available on DVD...

  7. Even more that it's Charles Eames, who later on went to make the furniture I sit on.

    I want to see something like this, but instead of zooming in and out, just paning. It'd be funny. Boring, but funny, if you put things at certain places. Like, at 10^7 meters to the LEFT you'd find God, and at 10^8 meters you'd find a Starbucks, and at 10^9, you'd find Jimmy Hoffa.
