Kirlian photograph of two coins. Kirlian photography is a collection of photographic techniques used to capture the phenomenon of electrical coronal discharges.It is named after Soviet scientist Semyon Kirlian, who, in 1939, accidentally discovered that if an object on a photographic plate is connected to a high-voltage source, an image is produced on the photographic plate.

Modern 3D Lichtenberg figures or "electrical treeing" in a block of clear acrylic, created by irradiating the block with an electron beam. Actual size: 80 mm × 80 mm × 50 mm (3 in × 3 in × 2 in) Lichtenberg figures are generated by a sliding spark discharge on the flask with a mixture of gases. Structural differences between the "positive ...
Breitling Top Time is a COSC-certified chronograph introduced in 1964 by Swiss watch brand Breitling SA. The watch appeared in the 1965 James Bond movie Thunderball : Bond is given a Breitling Top Time which contains a geiger counter to track down two stolen nuclear warheads .
Electrical treeing first occurs and propagates when a dry dielectric material is subjected to high and divergent electrical field stress over a long period of time. . Electrical treeing is observed to originate at points where impurities, gas voids, mechanical defects, or conducting projections cause excessive electrical field stress within small regions of the di
In electromagnetism, an electric discharge is the release and transmission of electricity in an applied electric field through a medium such as a gas (i.e., an outgoing flow of electric current through a non-metal medium).
Joel Alvarez, Miami-based fashion designer and creator of the "Black Tape Project," wowed 2024 New York Fashion Week with models wearing nothing but tape down the runway. Talk about a strips show.
Sparks — Electrical breakdown of a medium that produces an ongoing plasma discharge, similar to the instant spark, resulting from a current flowing through normally nonconductive media such as air. Telluric currents — Extremely low frequency electric current that occurs naturally over large underground areas at or near the surface of the Earth.
On the evening of July 8 at the Fontainebleau hotel, the controversial designer paraded models down the runway in his signature wearable sticky tape in all colors, shapes and, um, sizes. View this ...
