Kerr Black Hole – Rendered in Blender Here’s my latest creation: a fully realized Kerr (rotating) black hole, complete with its warped accretion disk, photon ring, and the eerie ergosphere where space itself is dragged along with the black hole’s spin. I modeled and animated this in Blender using...

🚨 SCIENTISTS MAY HAVE FINALLY SOLVED ONE OF THE BIGGEST UNSOLVED PROBLEMS IN BLACK HOLE PHYSICS. For years, astrophysicists have struggled with the “final parsec problem”: even after two supermassive black holes get relatively close, they struggle to shed enough angular momentum to merge within the age of the universe. New 3D simulations reveal that magnetic fields in the gas disk surrounding a binary system can solve this. The fields trigger powerful outflows and jets that efficiently carry away angular momentum, allowing the two objects to spiral much closer together. The same mechanism also explains how some binary stars end up in extremely tight orbits. In the simulations, binaries without magnetic fields actually moved farther apart. With magnetic fields present, they rapidly lost angular momentum and migrated inward. Why this matters: • It provides a physically motivated solution to one of the biggest open problems in black hole astrophysics • Magnetic fields appear to be far more effective at removing angular momentum than previously modeled effects • The mechanism works for both star formation and black hole mergers • It shows that the environment around binaries (not just the objects themselves) plays a decisive role in their evolution The deeper implication: We often think of black holes and stars as isolated objects governed purely by gravity. But these simulations show that the magnetic fields threading the gas around them can fundamentally change their fate. By removing angular momentum through jets and outflows, magnetic fields act like a cosmic brake, allowing binaries to reach the tight configurations we observe. This doesn’t just help explain star formation it may finally tell us how the universe’s most massive black holes manage to merge and create the gravitational wave signals we’re now detecting. Sometimes the key to cosmic mergers isn’t gravity alone. It’s magnetism. How important do you think magnetic fields are in shaping the final stages of black hole mergers and binary star evolution?

There is a room in Málaga that was built to be the closest thing on earth to standing inside heaven. It is called the camarín of the Virgin of Victory, and it is hidden at the top of a tower inside the Santuario de la Victoria. To reach it, you climb and the ascent is the entire point... The building you are climbing through was completed in 1700, and it was designed as a single argument made in stone. At the bottom lies a crypt: a black chamber crowded with white plaster skeletons, a meditation on death and the brevity of life. From there a staircase rises, and as you climb it the light grows stronger and the imagery changes from bones to saints. The architects of the time understood this ascent as the soul's own journey, the dark crypt as the stage of penitence, the staircase as the stage of spiritual progress, and the room at the very top as the final stage: the union of the soul with the divine. That room at the top is the camarín, and its dome is one of the most extraordinary interiors in Spain... Every surface is covered in white and gold plasterwork. There is no empty space anywhere. The Baroque called this horror vacui, the horror of the void: the conviction that a space meant to represent heaven should not contain a single bare patch of stone. Out of that plasterwork emerge angels, flowers, birds, and mirrors. The mirrors are not decoration alone. They catch the light pouring in through the windows of the drum and throw it around the chamber, so that the gold seems to move and the whole room appears to shimmer and breathe. This wonder was built by people who believed that if you wanted to show a human being what heaven might feel like, you did not describe it to them. You built a room, and you let them climb into it... -- -- -- If you enjoyed this, I write a weekly newsletter read by over 50,000 people who love rediscovering the beauty of the past.

Here we go again… Christopher C. Cuomo’s comments in this video regarding Kamala Harris, where he demeaningly referred to her as “Black female Jesus” and condescendingly referred to Black people as “you people,” reflect a pattern of racist rhetoric by the former anchor fired by CNN. He previously made a claim about being “Black on the inside” and even equated the term “Fredo” with the N-word. His reckless banter showcases a disturbing ignorance of the weight that racial language carries in America. His attempt to diminish the significance of Black leadership by mocking Harris as though her rise to become the vice president and nomination for president are superficial phenomenoms, rather than the result of hard-earned success in a country built on systemic racial inequities, is unacceptable. His thoughtless comments perpetuate harmful stereotypes about Black leaders, dehumanize their achievements, and trivialize the faith and support the Black community places in its representatives. For Cuomo to reduce Kamala Harris’ historic role to a caricature demonstrates his continued lack of respect for the Black community and its struggles. It is this kind of casual racism, cloaked in so-called political commentary, that fans the flames of division and undermines the progress we are fighting for. We cannot allow prominent voices to diminish the significance of Black leadership, nor can we stay silent when racially insensitive rhetoric is used to belittle our community. Chris Cuomo needs to recognize the damage his words cause and issue a public apology, not only to Kamala Harris but to the Black community as a whole. There is no room for this kind of racism—overt or subtle—in public discourse. By the way Christopher C. Cuomo, Jesus was BLACK, so we don’t have to create a Black one like you all created a ficticious white one.

The Sabotaging Practice of Over Supply and Sameness in the NFT Space. The current zeitgeist of the NFT space is that the same artists are doing the same kind of work five times a year, with project after project leaving a trail of disappointment and discontent among collectors and all of us watching in disbelief as huge resources are extracted from the space over work that feels like it could be left as an "artist study." I understand that you can do what you want with your money as collectors, but we are killing the whole space with this incestuous practice. No artist is that prolific to be able to do 5 collections of 100+ pieces each every year and actually deliver innovation and some kind of creative evolution. Of course, they can pretend play that the work has something new, but there is no precedent nor proof that that has ever happened in the speed that it happens in the NFT space. Again, people are free to through away their resources on whatever they want but with this way of doing things, we more and more are going to start seeing the consequences. Oh! There are consequences? Yes. Maybe unintended, but there are. Let's see. Let's start with the loss of belief in the NFT space as somewhere where emerging artists can come and find support for their experiments. Why even bother to bring experiments, innovation, and new ways to think of art on the blockchain if the same people have all the collectors hypnotized with their magical flutes? Why even try to come to a space where taking risks and challenging the status quo (the mission of art!!!) is overlooked? This makes the NFT space a social club and not a space for art. I guess it is fine, but IMO it is a recipe for disaster. New collectors stay away because the art will slowly but surely become stale and un-challenging. Why even bother to come and see what is happening here if you can't, as a collector, see new weird and up-and-coming artists? The amount of noise emitted by the same artists doing the same art over and over, drowns out any new voices. Again. A recipe for disaster. The NFT space is becoming a space of disappointment and doubt. We think that collections going to zero one after the other, over and over, is not damaging? I feel we are kidding ourselves. Disappointment piles up, and again, the people who will hurt are the emerging artists, the new blood, the ones who are willing to risk the most and, in return, put fire in this cold space of sameness. I love this space—don't get me wrong—it has changed my life, and I believe it has a ton of potential, but things need to change for it to become a beacon of light in art. But we need to support new voices. We need to support new ideas. The challenge is huge. I hope to contribute all I can to this change. I hope more and more see how exciting it is to go out and try to discover what else is out there and move this space forward. But again, I understand the leaps of faith needed, but if there is a space that is based on that, it's the NFT space...so there is hope. We will see. 📺by Boldtron

🚨UNIPHICS NEWS🚨: Light doesn’t slow down in glass — time does. And that explains every rainbow you’ve ever seen 🧨 For centuries, we’ve been taught that light slows down when it enters glass, water, or any transparent material, and that this slowing causes refraction and the splitting of colors in rainbows and prisms. The refractive index is treated as a material property, and photons are pictured as particles mysteriously changing speed inside matter. Uniphics offers a much cleaner and more fundamental picture. Light is a propagating spin-wave mode in the ξM-field. When this wave enters a material like glass, the material increases the local energy density. Because time flow is directly tied to energy density (t_flow = k / E_d), time flows more slowly inside the glass than in air. The spin-wave pattern of light therefore takes longer to advance through the region of slower time flow. This change in the rate of time progression across the boundary causes the wave to bend — exactly what we observe as refraction. Different wavelengths (colors) interact slightly differently with the energy-density environment, so they bend by different amounts, creating rainbows. Nothing actually slows down in the classical sense. The wave simply experiences a different rate of time flow inside the material. The same principle that explains gravitational lensing also explains ordinary lenses and rainbows. This turns one of the most familiar phenomena in optics into a direct consequence of variable time flow caused by energy density gradients. How might realizing that refraction and rainbows are caused by local changes in time flow rather than photons slowing down change the way we think about light, materials, or the design of new optical technologies? A Theory of Everything should be able to answer everything. Uniphics Explained Simply PDF: Chapters 1–10 free: Grokipedia #Uniphics #Refraction #Rainbows #TimeFlow #Light Grok xAI

If you think this is just another silly demo made with AI, read this post. You might change your mind, because this demo is about MATH. What you see on the screen is not a render from Blender (obviously, it’s not that good). It’s a three.js app built with Toolcraft. Available on the web and rendered in real time(link in the comments). But Blender still has a lot to do with it. Blender has Geometry Nodes - a powerful node-based system for creating and manipulating procedural geometry. In other words, it’s math. And math is a universal language. And who do you think is pretty good at math? >>> AI. Now you can download or buy Blender files from marketplaces, and when they contain Geometry Nodes for procedural animations, objects, surfaces, or effects, you can transfer that logic to the web. Make it real-time, make it interactive. Materials are a separate story, of course. They can still suck unless you use the right tricks: PBR, HDRIs, material blending, displacement, and faked surface relief. So why is Blender important here? Blender is open source, and many tools around it are open source too. An AI trained on their code. That means it can translate the math from one environment to another quite accurately. If you’ve been struggling to reproduce some idea with AI that you had in your head or seen in some references, and it has something to do with Geometry Nodes, and you can find that idea or a close one in the Blender ecosystem - it means you can transfer it to the web. Thank me later.
