I haven't heard anything quite like this, and several of the tracks literally had me in tears. A very emotionally evocative album.

You may have seen 'King of Kong'. The next classic video game clash of titans is...

This was my first introduction to Aphex Twin (Richard James) -Polynomial C. I found this MP3 file on a shared lab computer while working as an operator for computing services as a student in college and immediately fell in love. Then, the same person left Alberto Balsalm later.
At the time, the Internet wasn't quite what it is today, and it took me a while to track down the artist, as the other operator hadn't put any metadata in the MP3 files.
I've been a fan ever since, even if some of the music James creates is a bit out there, even for me.

For no particular reason the video repeats 3 times (perhaps to get beyond a lower limit for length in YouTube?)

Researchers create plastic lined with nano-structures that repels "soapy" materials, allowing every last drop to get out. Demo video at link.
Soap and detergents have a dual nature to their molecules which enable them to remove "oily" materials while also remaining soluable in water. The problem is that the oily ends of their molecules also help to stick such to plastics, which is why it is so difficult to get out that last drop.
What these researchers have done is create an additive to plastics which, when a bottle is formed, will have Y-shaped nano-structures with the single end pointed outward which repels even soapy materials by essentially forming a microscopically thin layer of air on the surface.
"Such a first world problem!", you may think. While there may be only a tiny bit lost in every bottle of shampoo and such, with billions of such bottles being thrown away every year this does add up to many tons of wasted product which first must be cleaned from those bottles if those plastics are to be recycled.

1) A lot of people had to be high off their ass to green-light this,
2) Not all animated films are suitable for kids, and
3) WTF did I just see?
