Non Newtonian Fluids

You must watch this video now:

It's a video of some scientists playing with cornstarch and water -- sounds boring, but the two form a non-newtonian fluid that is so fun to play with. You can replicate some of what they pull off here by filling a ziploc baggie partway full of water and cornstarch (mix it so it's about like pancake batter). Move the baggie quickly between your hands and it's like a rock.

Or you can mix some cornstarch and water in a cup -- put your finger in slowly and it's like mud. But if you poke it quickly you'll find it's super solid. Yip fer science!

Finger-like Protrusians rule my freaking world.

XKardz

I was helping my neighbor put together some business cards, and one of the local Buffalo print shops was advertising XKardz. What are XKardz? Well, check out the image below.

Oh, yeah, that's some crazy shit. The site provides a handy comparison between "Business cards" and "XKardz":

Business Cards are:

Your company
Same old, same old
Sadly, Monday morning
Give 'em the company line
Sport coats, ties and executive pant suits
The extension of your professional personality

While XKardz are:

You!
"Off the hook" with original graphix & typestyles
Finally, Friday night!!
Say it in your own way
Liquid denim flares, stamper locs, baggy jeans, crop tops and shades
Plain and simple, your hook-up

Clearly, XKardz are "the hook-up." Is this for people who can't turn off the business persona? Or is it the "individual branding" we see online so often moving into the real world in a more concrete manner? Or are people just hooking up so much they have to start carrying calling cards? And why aren't we doing this with our cell phones? or whoever is doing it... it's not me... I hate having business cards anyway...

Pee in the Pool

The two men sat staring at the whiteboard. A line down the middle of the board separated two lists, one labeled "Life," the other "Death." Under "Life" were a few bullet points, written in all-caps. Under "Death" was only one phrase: "EVERYTHING else."

Quoted from: PiTP || A Participatory Digital Fiction by Shawn Rider
