God Particle Symphony - Does Atomic Physics Rock Well With Hip Hop?

God Particle records? The GP clique? How about God Peezy for sheezy? What are we talking about? Well, scientists the LHC Large Hadron Collider at the CERN particle physics research center are turning subatomic particles they find in these huge machines and converting them into musical sound in their computers. According to our nerd friends, they use a technique that converts pure gathered date from the LHC experiments and turn them into sound. The probes in the machine can reconstruct what happens after particles are smashed together at near light-speed and measure how much energy leaves along its path.


"If you use the right software, you can get really nice music out of the particle tracks We want everyone to be able to share in the wonder and excitement of what we are doing, and this seems a good way of showing the awe-inspiring magnificence of it all. You can listen to the decay of a Higgs boson in the Atlas detector, or to a proton-proton collision inside the LHC" says physicist Lily Asquith.

WOW! That's pretty kool. What we wonder is if we can get them to do a nerd version of Lil Wayne's Lollipop!

I think they've recorded a song already.

You might like God's music but I doubt if you'd like His lyrics.

Obviously this along with the sun thread show the harmony in the universe.

But here is a question.

If one were to break down the chemical structure of a turd, and then convert the algorithms to music, would the turd coming from a musician be more musical than a turd from someone not musically inclined?

The new iPhone is out today. Wait...what was the topic? Molecular notation?

Sorry. I should have said Would a turd from a musician be more musical than a turd from a drummer. :)
