Every year brings faster high-speed cameras and better quality imaging, so the Slow Mo Guys like to occasionally revisit topics they’ve done before, like paint vibrated on a speaker. The Keep reading

Spinning Paint
Several years ago Fabian Oefner started spinning paint, and it’s been a perennial favorite online ever since. Here the Slow Mo Guys revisit their own paint-spinning antics by super-sizing their Keep reading
Paint Balloons
The Slow Mo Guys have a history of personal sacrifice in the name of cool high-speed footage, and their Super Slow Show is no exception. In a recent segment, both Keep reading
Blue Man Group in Slow Mo
In their latest video, the Slow Mo Guys team up with the Blue Man Group for some high-speed hijinks, some of which make for great fluidsy visuals. Their first experiment Keep reading
When Vortices Collide
In a new ad campaign for paint manufacturer Sherwin-Williams, the production team at Psyop show off some awesome fluid dynamics by swirling and injecting paint underwater. You can see one Keep reading
Paint Spilling Physics
There is a remarkable amount of physics contained in art. In this video, scientists from The Splash Lab explore some of the physics involved in pouring paint atop a rectangular Keep reading
Sound Sculptures
This is another fun and artistic use of non-Newtonian fluids (paint) vibrating on a speaker cone for advertising purposes. The shear-thinning viscous properties of the paint vie with surface tension Keep reading
Paint Vibrations
Paint vibrated on a loud speaker explodes in multi-colored jets and droplets. Most paints are shear-thinning non-Newtonian fluids (like ketchup, shampoo, or whipped cream), meaning that their viscosity decreases as Keep reading
Pouring Paint
In this artwork by Holton Rower, paint (typically a non-Newtonian fluid) is poured down a rectangular prism; the result is a neat demonstration of shearing in laminar flows. Paint is Keep reading
Flying Paint
High speed footage of flying paint demonstrates a world of viscosity and surface tension, as well as another great example of fluid dynamics as art. (via Gizmodo) If you enjoy Keep reading
