Paramount in the process of buying Warner Brothers and CNN, with Trump's thumb on the scale, is just the latest move by oligarchs to control the news

Have you seen the news articles about the incident? They express far more concern for the "injuries" the cops suffered that had to be treated at the hospital than they do for this Marine. The news is most definitely on the side of the fascists.

We can't directly hear photonic guitar music so I created the Cosmic Guitar plug-in. The plug-in applies the musical effect of the photonic guitar to an electric guitar.

Hi #sciart! Meet the first member of the photonic musical instrument family, the photonic guitar. The photonic guitar uses the resonance of electricity and light to create music in the same way an acoustic guitar uses the resonance of wood and sound.

'Fire in the Sky' reveals the core of Earth's ionosphere and the dynamics that result when unstoppable forces meet. Come check it out in person at the Art of Planetary Science show this weekend at the U. of Arizona! #sciart lpl.arizona.edu/art/

Hey #sciart! "This Circle Shouldn't be There" is a view of the Earth from space through my plasma physics research. The piece celebrates the joy of uncertainty in science and will quite literally brighten your day. This piece won 1st place at the Art of Planetary Science, open this weekend!

The more serious explanation is this piece reflects my belief (and actions) that we should normalize punching up, holding those in power to account for their actions. I chose the verbiage punching above in reference to "punching above their weight class", aka the lighthearted Jupiter envy part.

Hey #sciart! This is "Punching Above (Normalized)". This piece is a view of the Earth from space through the lens of my plasma physics research. The piece reveals Earth's true intention is to become the next Jupiter. It won 2nd place at the Art of Planetary Science show, open this weekend!

A picture of Fig. 5 from https://doi.org/10.1029/2025JA033911 that has two images, both reflecting the performance of a new solution to plasma electrodynamics that works for complicated magnetic fields. While ostensibly just science the images are simultaneously both science and art.

Hey #sciart! As a physicist it has been a struggle to get U.S. funding agencies to take anything resembling art from science seriously. While I can't force the government to act with reason or justification I now have published proof that my approach to science is art. doi.org/10.1029/2025...

You can read more about my plasma physics research here (doi.org/10.1029/2025...) and see more of the art that physics generates here (cosmicstudio.io).

Hey #sciart! My name is Dr. Russell Stoneback. I'm a space scientist whose research is simultaneously both science and art. My solution for plasma dynamics, thought to be impossible, also produces visual artwork. I hope my images can connect with people to convey the hidden beauty within physics.

My artwork "Punching Above (Normalized)" just won 2nd place in the data art category at the "Art of Planetary Science". This piece emerged from a solution to plasma physics a problem thought to be impossible to solve. Punching above seeks to normalize holding those in authority to account. #sciart

To add another aspect why it is wrong my art comes directly from my science.

For decades the space science community considered the coupled problem of neutral and plasma dynamics impossible to solve in realistic magnetic fields. The previous solution was physically incorrect but claimed to be the best possible. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

A circle sits to the left of a large square. The piece is brightly colored with various shades of yellow, using a darker red to outline both the square and the circle.

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

Your 'moment of doom' for Jan. 29, 2026 ~ The other overshoot.

"Without action to draw down atmospheric carbon, the climate system will likely move into an era of accelerated warming that may be impossible to halt. Overshoot will be permanent."
