So have you heard of Dr. Megavolt (pictured above beside a mean looking tesla coil)? I saw him on Wired Science a few weeks ago and he put on a pretty impressive light show. Supposedly you can just hire him to do wild electrical stunts for your events. Which begs the question, why would anyone hire a clown/magician for a child’s birthday party?

This latest DJ mix begs the additional question, why would anyone listen to music other than the Sounds of Science? This electricity (unfortunately a little lacking on the magnetism) mix goes out to my co-worker Cindy in Electrical Engineering. Party on!
