A while ago, ZME Science featured the brilliant work of Fabian Oefner, a Swiss artist and photographer, who mixes various artsy techniques (paints, photography, glasswork etc) with science.
Thus, he came up with some truly fantastic pieces of art from mixing paint with magnetic liquid, to using colored crystals that pattern under sound waves (pictured in the GIFs), to setting whiskey on fire. For your daily dose of awe, check out Oefner’s TED talk embedded in this article.
