A Creative Look Into Lightpaintings By Stephen Knapp

Category: Art & Culture
Published: Monday, January 16, 2017

My lightpaintings have been called the first unique art form of the twenty-first century. If you think you are amazed by them in the video, think of how I feel inside them creating one.

I still get goose bumps thinking about how lucky I am to be able to work in such an amazing medium. As great as they look on the screen to see one in person kicks it up a notch. We have nothing in our visual memory to prepare ourselves for paintings that are created just with light.

Alan Jern, Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology

A central theme of HBO’s new sci-fi series “Westworld” is the question of what it means to be human.

The setting is an immersive adult theme park that’s been fashioned after the American Old West and is inhabited by intelligent lifelike robots.

Published: Thursday, December 29, 2016

Written By: XAQ RZETELNY

It's a new, impressive experiment, but the results are exactly what we expected.

One of the persistent mysteries about our Universe is the extreme imbalance between matter and antimatter. Antimatter and matter were both generated during the Big Bang, but the Universe is now dominated by ordinary matter, and we don't know why that should be the case. To solve that mystery, an obvious place to look for clues would be in antimatter itself. If researchers could find something different about antimatter’s behavior, it might hint at an explanation for the extreme disparity.
