Magnetic Movie from Semiconductor on Vimeo.



Description: 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?

This video is pretty amazing a la "What the Bleep Do We Know?". If you haven't watched Bleep, then just consider those raw moments in your childhood, which were purely magical. And I'm not talking about the time you got the Batmobile in your Happy Meal. I'm talking about that time you floated mysteriously in the woods behind your house. I'm just kidding, but I guess you could say I'm half-serious too. There indeed is more than meets the eye, and that point is often neglected, even though few refuse to admit it. Maybe try to apply it?
