Unearthing a treasure trove of articles and videos - the kottke archives |

"Is the periodic table yummy? Well, it depends on the element." Any website containing this text bears further investigation. Watch the epic spaceman shrink down by a factor of 10 every 20 seconds until he's the size of an atom, find out how to repair Oreo biscuits using the Japanese art of Kinstugi and learn which elements of the periodic table you should and shouldn't eat: all (and much more) at the Kottke archives. |

Other links on the page give the periodic table of swearing, and explore what would happen if you swallowed all of the elements.

The video (which has excellent production values) can be found here.
Other videos on the site will show how to play Blue Monday by New Order on old Casio instruments, timelapse videos of mealworms eating a sweetcorn cob and a map showing the largest cities from ancient times to the present day.
And much, much more ...
Two warnings: you can lose a lot of time browsing through this excellent site, and if you're a MAGA Republican you're not going to agree with many of its political articles and videos.
