Rock On

I just came back from a physics sing-a-long...

If a picture is worth a thousand words then these videos are quite priceless (they are actually much clearer than the front images leads one to believe).



I think this one is especially catchy-



Walter Smith, "the man in charge", is a Professor of Physics at Haverford College and runs the PhysicsSongs website. He led the enthusiastic crowd of physicists through songs about electricity, nano science, magnetic fields, circuits, physical constants, and MANY other physics-y topics throughout the 1.5 hour event.

Smith was accompanied by University of Maryland Physics Professor Victor Yakovenko on drums (who also plays in a Russian-American rock band) and Denver musician Derek VanScoten on guitar.

If you're not at least a little amused yet, I'm afraid I really can't help you.
