Creepy Ferrofluid Explorations

I combined everyday soap bubbles with exotic ferrofluid liquid to create an eerie tale, using macro lenses and time lapse techniques. Black ferrofluid and dye race through bubble structures, drawn through by the invisible forces of capillary action and magnetism. Time-lapse sequences: Nikon D90, Nikkor 60mm macro lens and custom built intervalometer. Motion-control: Arduino driven scanner platform and mirror rigs Score: Ableton Live View Compressed 01 http://vimeo.com/22866665 Twitter http://www.twitter.com/kpimmel

Artist Kim Pimmel created Compressed a series using macro lenses, time lapse photography, and magnetism.
