Periodic Table of the Elements - University of Nottingham

September 10th, 2008 No Comments

Just so you know, when I’m not playing my new copy of Spore (thanks to H for giving it to me as a birthday present!), I watch these videos I recently found on YouTube videos about the Periodic Table of the Elements (by the University of Nottingham).

These videos are extremely geeky and so are the participants in the videos. They’re geek gold.

The intro video.

The entire collection.

And let me start you out with Hydrogen.

Yes, in case you’re wondering, these are the sorts of geeks I hung out with for most of my post-high school education.

Effin’ cool sound illusions

Via Metafilter (via Mindhacks), originally linked by New Scientist, the onlyone I’ve listened to is the Virtual Barbershop, but the others are, I bet, as cool.

The Virtual Barbershop is YouTube hosted, in stereo, and requires earphones/headphones to work properly.

Find the others in the New Scientist link.
