Ferrite – Interactive Liquid Sculpture

Looking for an easy way to instantly hinder your productivity? You may have just found it in Ferrofluid:

Ferrofluid is an extraordinary material with unique ferromagnetic properties. Although dozens of applications for it have been found – from hard drives to loudspeakers – its most impressive is arguably as an interactive display. Ferrofluid displays capture the best qualities of ferrofluid, both as a liquid and as a ferromagnetic substance. By applying magnetic fields of different strengths, different shapes and formations begin to appear in this otherworldly black liquid. By suspending it in a clear liquid, even more interactive qualities are exposed.
