Magnetic putty time lapse as it absorbs a rare-earth magnet. Taken over 1.5 hours at 3fps, played back at 24fps. The magnetic putty will eventually arrange itself so that the outer surface is as evenly distributed around the magnet as possible. 

Ferromagnetic particles in the putty are strongly attracted to the magnet and very slowly engulf the surface of the magnet. The magnet shown in the picture is a strong neodymium iron boron magnet. It's a very powerful magnet for its size and could erase magnetic stripes found in credit cards and damage electronics!

The putty looks and feels like regular silly putty, but the difference lies in the fact that it has been infused with millions of micron-sized ferrous particles (most often iron oxide powder). The magnetic putty is not actually magnetic by itself, since the infused particles are made of iron powder.

The presence of the strong neodymium iron boron magnet (the silver cube in the video) magnetizes the ferromagnetic particles in the putty. When this happens, the ferrous particles align with each other and this alignment generates north and south magnetic poles, making the putty into a temporary magnet. Once magnetized, the putty will remain magnetized even after the rare-earth magnet has been removed from the putty. This effect persists for a few hours until thermal agitation shakes the particles and they lose their alignment.

Magnetic Putty Time Lapse 1080p

En weer is daar een onvervalste [internet revival](http://boingboing.net/2015/02/20/watch-magnetic-silly-putty-ea.html) (zie de [druipende verf](http://thecreatorsproject.vice.com/nl/blog/druipende-verf-is-nog-nooit-zo-spannend-geweest) van vorige week). Dit keer gaat het om [Scott Lawson](http://www.youtube.com/user/linkman11)'s video van hoe een bonk metaalputty moeiteloos een hele magneet opslokt. We kunnen niet ophouden hiernaar te kijken. En het lijkt erop dat we daarin [niet de enige zijn](http://thisisnthappiness.com/post/111583981404/hungry-silly-putty).

Thinking Magnetic Putty

In this episode of SHANKS FX we have some fun with the wonderful weirdness of "Magnetic Putty". 

Get the same putty I used here...  http://store.yahoo.com/cgi-bin/clink?puttyworld+vrJ4Sh+index.html+

If you like what you see, don't hesitate to click on the green icon below to "TIP THIS VIDEO".
Will help to ensure we make more episodes, just like this one!!! 

We used this Putty to create a lot of the 
Black Hole sequences in our film SCI-FLY    watch Trailer ----> https://vimeo.com/57116781 

We now take a 2nd run at experimenting with this "strange matter" 
to see what new images & sequences can be achieved!!!
