Ferrofluid Sculpture

For the person who will ruin a conversation by saying, wait, watch this.

Oddity 1 is familiar. 5 is genuinely strange.

A sealed bottle of black magnetic liquid that spikes into a tiny landscape when a magnet comes near.

Three reasons

  1. Ferrofluid was developed as a rocket fuel you could steer with magnets. The desk version is the same strange physics.
  2. There is no finished shape. The magnet keeps making a new one.
  3. This is the MTR Designs Spike, made with lab ferrofluid, not a toy bottle that separates in a month.
