Put some fluorescent dye in water. Then feed it through a precise, micro-controlled pump so as to get a very regular stream of drops from the top of your apparatus. Then, turn the blacklight on, and start your strobelight. What you’ve just created is called The Time Fountain, and happens to be one of the trippiest DIY projects we’ve ever come across.



It’s the brainchild of one Nate True, and what you’re able to do with this project will simply amaze you. By regulating the strobe’s frequency, you’re able to freeze a drop of water in mid-air, and interact with it; break it up and such. You can slow the drip down, or even better, reverse it, hence the name: in reverse, it looks like your fountain is going back in time.

To really know what it does here's the Video

Yeah . . . given the opportunity . . . will go back during the Trojan War era . . . and will ask Achilles to kill Paris . . . first, rather than Hector . . . so his legacy will live longer thatw as written on the books . . .

I prefer the PAST than the FUTURE . . . you STILL don't know what will transpire in the future . . . going back in the past can make you a Billionaire, just like in the Lottery . . . because you already 'know' what number-combinations will come out . . . etc. etc.

I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up as a commercial product before too long. It's exactly the kind of toy that saddos like me buy from gadgetshop
