The Faraday Wave Blues
Courtesy DSWeb (SIAM's online dynamical systems magazine), here is a bluesy YouTube video about holes in Faraday patterns. The narrator has trouble keeping a straight face at the end of the video, but in general this is extremely amusing for quite a while. As discussed in this article, this video (and other ones with different narratives and background sounds) started life as a non-winning entry in the Gallery of Fluid Motion. Maybe my nonlinear science gallery video will ultimately have a similar fate?
That was awesome! Thanks for the link!
