  1. Juggalo science? Fuckin’ magnets!

  2. Science done in a repressive (I’m guessing this is 40’s to the 60’s) era seems to be more fun. I would love to get my photo in ‘Life’ by actually forcing dogs to play poker in the name of science.

  3. The only thing missing here is a piece of buttered toast strapped to their backs…

  4. The childrens’ encyclopedias, science books, and film strips of my childhood were full of stuff like this.

  5. What in the fucking what?

    …I wish science was still like this…

  6. yeah in the 60s they were ALL mad scientists.. just look at those eyes

  7. This is clearly what got us to the moon. More cat-magnets, I say! We’d be colonising Pluto by now if they’d kept up this kind of research…

  8. Well that brings a whole new history and reality to the ‘Ceiling cat is watching you masturbate’ meme

  9. I wish life made this much sense.

  10. Did W Eugene Smith take this photo? if so, drugs?

  11. Everyone has this all wrong. Everyone thinks the man was laying down the science on the animals, but if you look closely into the eyes of the man and then look at the cat you will see that the cat is clearly in control.

  12. Say, that happened to me this morning. I hung from the ceiling by my nads for 20 minutes. Gods, what a foul mood that put me in. That’s what I get for watching “29 Weeks Later” over me brekkie, I guess. Science can be beautiful, but when it bites, its foul saliva makes you contend with Elder Gods that are sometimes actually there.

  14. That cat looks like it’s fully aware of just how awesome that whole situation is, but I love the little “For Science?…My God!” expression on the guy in the coat.

  15. [...] Via Warren Ellis. [...]

  16. I want this tattooed on my thigh so I can laugh every time I pee.

This might be cute if it was narrated by any other voice than the one they chose. Enjoy.

John Robb - 02 Sep 10

Some very random items of interest:

  • Outsourcing to Arkansas.  This is all part of a larger trend:  the replacement of urbanized work (office, commute, expensive home, etc.) with telecommuting from a home located anywhere.  In other words, it will reverse migration from cities and decrease the need for a car.  The solution to finding a way to afford ever more expensive cars, 20% of top line income already (and climbing), isn't more fuel efficiency ala Rocky Mountain Institute -- it's finding a way to eliminate the need to own a car entirely. 
  • CIA Red Cell research brief (wikileaks).   Seems to be "inside the box" thinking to me.  A red cell would be a lot less expensive if they just published revised versions of old GG posts.
  • NPR.  Tea party as an open source insurgency.  The analysis uses the the term "starfish" to describe the organization rather than open source.  That term is from a good book called "The Starfish and Spider."  It's a nice compliment to "Brave New War" and a quick read (it's a light business book) to boot.
  • Cambridge video from another John Robb.  He studies how we envision our bodies (machine, container of spirit, data, etc.).  Personally, I like the indistinct from nature viewpoint -- the first.  
  • Discovery channel manifesto.  Lots of nuts.  
  • New issue of Interesting Times, a cyber-apocalypse-punk swedish e-zine is out.
  • Pint sized Thorium reactors.  Not going happen.
  • Cook.  Some interesting analysis on P2P thinking (featuring the excellent P2P foundation and Global Guerrillas).
  • More later (after some coffee).

PauseTalk Next Week

Jean Snow - 02 Sep 10

Yes, it’s already time for a new edition of PauseTalk (Vol. 44), set to happen this coming Monday (September 6) at Cafe Pause, with the regular start time of 20:00 — as always, the cafe is reserved for the event from 19:30, so feel free to come early. Although the SNOW Magazine Cafe event ended this past Monday, I’ll bring out the participating magazines again for anyone who didn’t have a chance to browse through them.

Also, there was some sort of error when I created the Facebook event page, and so this is the correct one (if you receive a message about cancellation, that’s for the extra page it created).

I?ll Get The Ice-Creams

Coilhouse - 01 Sep 10

Bird Box presents one family’s day at the playground in a way that almost resembles a Rube Goldberg invention. At less than a minute long this short more than makes up for its brevity with a spectacular sense of timing.
