Arkadyevitchizing America since 2006
By the time you panic, it is way too late -- Lee Raymond, New York Times, July 6, 2008
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies a theft from those who are hungry and not fed; from those who are cold and not clothed. This world-in-arms is not spending money alone; it is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. Dwight D Eisenhower, 11/16/53
It's 110 MB of water vapor; there's a narrative and subtitles that describe the images themselves. I don't have a text description, other thanNOAA's Environmental Visualization Program is offering a high-resolution satellite animation of the 2008 Atlantic Hurricane Season. You may click the link below to download the file. If you encounter trouble, right-click the link and save file to your computer.
While we whippersnappers may object that geeking out and tripping out are different in substantive ways, we did have a geophysical fluid dynamics professor who was promoting a book full of cool images of fluids in motion.
Mmmmm....bullets passing through a viscous medium...
But along the lines of the 60s I see it as an era when artists explored the visual implications of how light waves would appear if they had dispersive propagation in the same way as waves in fluids.
Wow, me too. Beautiful
ReplyDeleteCan you provide the link to the animation details (what is shown)?

ReplyDeleteVery psychedelic. You guys would have loved the 60's. You call it geeking out...we called it tripping out :)

ReplyDeleteI would agree that they are different but that video just took me back somehow:)
ReplyDeleteOh, that book!
