It’s almost obvious that the three holes with two “interacting” would make an interesting simple model of a cornstarch+water gravitational theory. Something like, from this jumble of complexity we see primordial order arise and do neat stuff, what insight does this give to dark matter/energy in our observable universe?

Seeing the “fingers” reminded me of the death-throws of T-1000 Terminator (with all the people’s patterns bleeding out) or the spontaneous growth of swamp-things. That made me think of life forms… arising from a steady state (of dull goop)… from a puff of air. It’s starting to sound like a famous creation story. That’s right, I’m talking about the Pillsbury Doughboy. Just kidding, I meant the Christian creation story. Oh wait, the pervasive “vibrations” sounds new-agey also.

So what happens if we throw some dna-origami into the soup?

Would we maybe be able to manually fold proteins if they’re held tightly enough by a suspension that is reactive to wave pulses? Does the presence of a ferrous substance allow the sonicly-induced structures to interact with magnetic fields too? Maybe this is a precursor to the visualization technology the X-men used to depict Ellis Island?

thanks for bringing this to my attention

MikeD:

Yeah, I look at this weirdness and think that this must be important somehow.

Like Roy Neary staring at mashed potatoes, “This means something.”
