Ordering Dice by Stirring Them (Not Shaking Them)

As stated in the Physics Focus blurb about this article, "A jumble of thousands of cubic dice, agitated by an oscillating rotation, can rapidly become completely ordered, a result that is hard to produce with more conventional shaking."

Also, take a look at the very short video.

Very cool!
