Hey all. Here in Sweden some of our preschools teaches signlanguage. It’s a really good compliment and the kids rock it like they never did anything else. I know Swedsh signlanguage because of my sisters deaf kid. Its a wonderfful way to communicate. Love the bodylanguage that comes with it! Take care!
This somehow reminds me of: http://www.derekhugger.com/merlot.html Hope you like it.

Important topic!
Spread the word!
Science is being defunded around the world. Help us spread the importance of science, by sharing this video!
Despite our achievements, science and society are often at odds. Scientific discoveries like the Earth is round, that our planet revolves around the sun, or that diseases are spread through germs were all once ideas that were rejected by society. So much so that Giordano Bruno was burned at the stake for suggesting the Earth wasn’t the centre of the universe, and even Galileo was sentenced to house arrest for supporting the theory. Today we see the rejection of scientific evidence for vaccinations - leading to preventable disease like measles coming back, after being wiped out in the year 2000; or the rejection of scientific evidence for climate change, despite the vast consensus among scientists.
Let’s spread our love of science further, so others can learn to understand and appreciate it! Your sharing is appreciated
Time to take actions! We only got one place to call home, so lets act like its our home!
As governments discuss climate change in Paris, they’ll be referring to the dire predictions of climate scientists. Here are three visualizations of possible futures based on detailed climate models and summed up by the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in their 2013 report. The deeper the red - the hotter things are getting.
The message is clear: we better act fast.
How did they come up with these models? Read or listen to Nell Greenfieldboyce’s story.

How the f could a human do something like that? I want to see a video of that guy in action.
His name: Achim Leistner.
He is the master optician of the Avogadro project, an international effort to define the Avogadro constantwith maximum precision. He was asked to join the project from retirement as it was deemed that his expertise and craftsmanship were essential for the success of the project.

I just love nerds like this! Wow, you amaze me!
Here’s a time-lapse I took of my friend and I wrapping copper wire around our radio telescope antenna.
If any of the other stages of the build process would make for interesting videos, I will try to post them as well.
Väldigt vackert när det är Mondrian målning som reflekteras om. Wow! Jag undrar hur en “grid” av rutor 1x1 skulle se ut efter den blivit omgjord. Dags att uppgradera mina programeringsskills och göra egna program.. :)
Edit: Malin hade gjort ett fint program redan för detta. MEN, att rita raka stäck med mus är sådär halv lätt.. Resultat :
When reflecting a painting in a circle, pen strokes close to the centre of the circle become thicker. Reflecting a pixel-based image would enlarge and distort some pixels. A painting built of strokes, like a Mondrian-painting, is better suited for circle inversion.
