Porcelain slip (kaolin, water, sodium citrate) is a shear-thickening suspension of particles in water. When a stream impacts a fluid surface, the kaolin particle concentration becomes non-uniform and irregular, resulting in spreading rings of color
Dyed oobleck (corn starch and water) drips through perforated spatulas, inverted in orientation and color.
Dyed oobleck (corn starch and water) drips through perforated spatulas. The shear-thickening behavior creates unnatural looking stalactites
Bubbles of CO2 formed by dry ice sublimating beneath a layer of dyed oobleck created patterns as each bubble brought up fresh oobleck.
Bubbles of CO2 formed by dry ice sublimating beneath a layer of dyed oobleck tend to tear on their sides, and sometimes flap as more gas enters and escapes.
Bubbles of CO2 formed by dry ice sublimating beneath a layer of dyed oobleck tend to pop on their sides.
A long exposure captures both colored lights reflected in the surface of a soap bubble filled with fog in CO2 and the fog after the bubble pops.
