1. Magnetic Movie
3 years ago
The secret lives of invisible magnetic fields are revealed as chaotic ever-changing geometries . All action takes place around NASA's Space Sciences Laboratories, UC Berkeley, to recordings of space scientists describing their discoveries . Actual VLF audio recordings control the evolution of the fields as they delve into our inaudible surroundings, revealing recurrent ‘whistlers' produced by fleeting electrons . Are we observing a series of scientific experiments, the universe in flux, or a documentary of a fictional world?

Any chance of you uploading an HD version?
Science is truly amazing. but when you talk about replacing religion with science and giving it the kind of power that the church once had when dominating the state, you are completely ignorant of why religion has become so unpopular in the first place. Replacing one kind of mindless worship with another is not "enlightened"
I'm pretty sure science is quite literally the opposite. Science is answering a question with cold hard proof. Then you can marvel.
guys, your work is amazing !!
For those wondering: It's not a 'hoax' or a 'trick'. The video is simply using motion-tracked graphics to help visualize what the human eye (or camera, for that matter) cannot see. The presence of magnetic fields is of course real.
The magnetic field lines on the wires are a little different than I would have expected (at least of there's current runnning)...

A somehow reminding representation of a reality ? Excellent! Most people have no idea of the world they live in. If it has to be the Muppet way...brilliant :)))
What looks totally wrong are the shadows of the little round particles and also the of the magnetic lines later in the film -- there is obviously only one light source for the effects, while the room has many lights across the ceiling. I know how to composite a shadow into a prerecorded environment, but why?However visible magnetic fields don't cast shadows and again, the shadows don't represent visible environment -- but why add them in the first place?
It doesn't make the footage more credible.
Also, the lines and particles seem to have one solid color, an effect that you get when you composite a black and white image and colorize it. An additive coloring might have looked more real, because it allows for transparency.
Great camera tracking though!
I would opine that it's a partially poorly done computer animation, whose shadows make no sense at all...but it is -- including the music -- so whimsical that it is fun.
Wot iz your opinion?

We live in a world much wider and much more beautiful than we can perceive with our senses.
However it is inside, also.
'Common sense' means exactly what it says: the shared part of reality we can grasp with our senses. Technology helps us broaden the range of our perceptions, and helps us see what we cannot see due to our sensory limitations.
Besides senses, we have a direct knowledge of all this, since it is our own nature, too, not only of the 'outside' world.
First natural reaction to this: Panic.
Then: Curiosity.
Then: Practice.
Then: You get used to it.
Magnetic lines don't do these things. (A few of them maybe, but not this way either.)
And the soundtrack, it's just irritating :)
It shows somethings that are sort of kind of close to reality but it was created to entertain. As Lord Pas says in his comment "This is art and not actual science". There should have been a disclaimer at the beginning.
If you want to see magnetic fields look at the Aurora Borealis or dump some iron filings onto a sheet of paper held over a magnet. There are other ways but this ain't one of 'em.
your work is amazing, man.
