Scientific supercomputing visualizations


EZT4L1TY sez, "Science in Silico, a new video from Seed Magazine, is about the power of modern scientific supercomputing, showcasing some of the most impressive new simulations and visualizations from around the globe. The coolest part about many of these projects is that they're giving us information and insights about our world that, as far as we know, would be otherwise unavailable via more 'traditional' investigations. These simulations represent a third way of doing science, using the fixed assumptions and prior knowledge so vital to deductive reasoning to generate new information and data that can then be analyzed inductively. Also, the soundtrack has some nice excerpts from the Dub Side of the Moon."
