Big Perimeter audience, appreciative interest, long question period after.
He undercuts his critics (who said the concentric circles could have appeared by chance) by criticising their methods and makes at least one valid point. I would say that the critics still...

is there anyone which can tell me what application was used to create this video... i think this is cool way to illustrate your problem or help someone...i often seek help from my friend who is settled in another country...sometimes i has to attach so many individual...
Marcolli has been a frequent collaborator with Alain Connes, and is now math prof at Caltech.
Since NC geometry has yielded the Standard Model particles, plus some predictions, there is interest in basing the NC matter on spinfoam quantum geometry

Skip video to 4:40. He says that the average velocity in the horizonatal direction is the same as the initial velocity (7.07m/s) because it doesn't change. but wouldn't the velocity...
I'm surprised we don't have an Equipment category on PF. Much of working with Physics is equipment for monitoring, testing, calculating, etc. Then there's not just the equipment (hardware) but software, operation, source of supply, repair, calibration, rentals, etc. So let me throw that in the...
I recently watched Fourth Kind and was left wondering if it's possible to have statics in captured video. From my understanding, static is mostly associated with radio interference when signals interfere with one another on similar frequencies. Since a captured video records visible light (part...
Hi!
Consider a high-speed camera set up to record an explosion and the resulting shockwave emanating from the explosion. In the same frame you can see the shock wave as well as people in the distance. Is it true that the people in the distance wouldn't hear the sound of the explosion until...
I need to do some editing of videos I've got in .VOB format from a minicam.
I need to do the usual fading, video marking in and out, and inclusion of still slides.
One of the more sophisticated things it looks like I need to do is to crop dynamically over time (i.e. crop the video down to...
Hey guys. I just stumbled upon this site which I find really awesome. Its called Academic Earth. This site has a collection of video lectures on many different subjects: Math, Science, Engineering, History, Philosophy and many more. It has lectures from M.I.T, Berkeley, Harvard, Yale and more...
Hello, I am currently creating an ongoing series of Topology video lectures and looking for students of an appropriate level for some accurate feedback. They are much in the style of the popular Khan Academy.

Thank you for your time.
I want to make an RC car that I can control in two ways. One would be over local wifi and I am actually watching the car and controlling it with my iPhone using touchOSC. The Arduino is using the http://asynclabs.com/" to connect to the wireless network at home or Ad-Hoc when no network is...

Seems like it is faked, but I dunno. BTW, the uploader explained that the noise in the background is a howler monkey and you'll hear the guy making a howling sound back early in the video. Sounds strange, but anyway.

Hello,
I am searching for the equipment used in the Youtube/BBC video posted below. I have looked for contact info at Cologne University, but a lot of their sight was not translated over to English.
Specifically, I am searching for the barrier used in the video. Also I hope this is the...
ok so this guy throws up a cup of hot water at like 45 below zero F. And I am not sure what exactly is going on . Does the water first evaporate really fast and then freeze into tiny ice crystals. When its really cold outside the humidity is really low, so does stuff evaporate really quickly.
If one were to travel towards a star at the speed of light, and the spaceship beamed to Earth a continuous video stream of the voyage with an on board camera running not @ 25 FPS but at 300,000,000 FPS; Then what will the person on Earth watching the streaming video see as the voyage progressed...
Greetings and excuse me if my question doesn't belong here.
I've been searching for quite a while but I can't find a video that matches this describing:

The camera may not stop recording once during the 5 minutes...
Im not sure what this is:

Maybe this is an explanation for some sightings seen by airplane passengers.
Or maybe it is an artifact of a bad videocamera and you wouldn't see it with the naked eye.

Hi,
I have a tiny (.6"x.6"x.125") 2.4ghz video transmitter that puts out about 1mw or rf power. I want to severely reduce the output power in order to reduce the range of this transmitter. instead of a few hundred feet line of sight range I would prefer no more than 10ft, and as little as 2...

I need to illuminate a scene for a video inspection.
Unfortunately it's a big scene and I don't have unlimited power.
I though of using a strobe light triggered at 30Hz (or ideally 60Hz) and synced from the frame pulse of the video camera - so I get a bright pulse of light as each image is...
Henderson gives a good talk. He's been working with Abhay Ashtekar on reformulating loop cosmology as a spinfoam-like path integral---also using GFT (group field theory) where a parameter shows up that may have physical interest (possible connection with the cosmological constant). He got...

Anyone know of a good 10-20 minute video on space travel? Anything that provides sufficient information on space crafts, progression of space travel, future space travel? Much appreciated, thanks. I need to show a video for my Space Travel seminar.
