The interaction between two fluids: a glycerin-water mixture (clear) and a diluted food dye mixture (blue). When these two fluids meet, descending jets/fingers will form as the diluted food dye breaks through the glycerin-water layer. However, these tendrils will form into blob-like parcels and rise back through the clear fluid as the buoyancy force pushes the less dense blue fluid back to the surface.

    Very fun visual! I think a tighter crop would be beneficial to focus in on the region of interest.

    This clip is beautiful and hypnotic, excellent display of the impacts of density and viscosity

    Great video Alana! I wonder if we could have diffused the light from the LED panel better so the background is more homogeneous. However, it does add more to the artistic background pattern!
