Spacertime Curvature

LYRICS
Take a look at the sun, Son
Any mass you pass
Take a look at the Earth, girl
Watch it twirl

There’s curvature in spacetime for sure
Are you rotating round and round in the orbit you have found?

Rotational frame-drag
In you your spacetime sag
The plight of light slowing down
When opposing the going round and round

Rotational frame-dragging
All due to this spacetime thang

ABOUT THE SONG
Style: ExperiMental Music
Chords: E / A G
Recording: digital 1-track stereo

Frame-dragging is an effect on spacetime, predicted by Einstein’s general theory of relativity, that is due to non-static stationary distributions of mass–energy. A stationary field is one that is in a steady state, but the masses causing that field may be non-static, rotating for instance.

Rotational frame-dragging (the Lense–Thirring effect) appears in the general principle of relativity and similar theories in the vicinity of rotating massive objects. Under the Lense–Thirring effect, the frame of reference in which a clock ticks the fastest is one which is revolving around the object as viewed by a distant observer. This also means that light traveling in the direction of rotation of the object will move past the massive object faster than light moving against the rotation, as seen by a distant observer.

bookmark_borderIgneous Ignoramus

LYRICS
How could I not know about the igneous flow
I’m just an igneous ignoramus
After investigation, one realizes… da… there’s no enigma
Quartz crystallizes from molten magma
A six-sided prism terminating in a six-sided pyramid
Down-to-earth geotropism hid under an inside-out geode lid
Cryptocrystalline can hardly be seen
Aggregate into an agate and see what you get

Some people only know the volcano
I must confess… I was an igneous ignoramus
Only getting to know about a lava flow (The mama of molten magma)
Then, my sights started to grow
Now I’m inclusive of extrusive and intrusive
Why not get ’em while they’re hot… these rocks rock
Crystals… fractals… for sure, crystals — fractals found in nature
Mandelbrot brought “beautiful, damn hard, increasingly useful. That’s fractals.”
Might I add to this fad “beautiful, damn hard, increasingly useful. That’s quartz crystals.”

bookmark_borderStep It Up (Work!)

LYRICS
Step by step by step
Going up. Going down.
Work! The product of the force applied to move
(Is it work to groove?)
Work! Measure the height, right? Right!
Don’t be a dope and measure the slope
After all, moving forward is no work at all
Step by step by step
Going up. Going down.
Power! Am I dumb…
Power… the rate work is done?
Come on! Let’s have some
What? Watt! What? What!
Is it plain the plane requires less work…
Or, am I just being a jerk?
What if I’m to climb two steps at a time
Or better yet I get to go down
Is there any work to be found?
Can I get gravity to do it for me?
Let’s see…
Step by step by step
Going up. Going down.

LYRICS
Come down to Earth? For what it’s worth, you force me to grasp the gravity… gravity of gravity
Creating the possibility of thermal energy
Putting the weight of the world on my shoulders
I suppose we’re all beholders
Gravitating toward one another
Stopping us from drifting further
Come down to Earth? For what it’s worth, you can’t force me to grasp the gravity of gravity
Maybe not a force at all
I’m not sure
If you’re just a consequence of the curvature
Not a straight line in space-time
Come down to Earth? For what it’s worth, you force me to grasp the gravity… gravity of gravity
Our attractive force is proportional
To the product of our masses
Igniting spheres of hydrogen gases
Creating complexities such as galaxies
Come down to Earth? For what it’s worth, you force me to grasp the gravity… gravity of gravity
Bodies in the universe
Drawn on a collision course

Experiment In Biology.mp3

LYRICS
Understanding the biology that is me
Some sort-of anatomy. Me.

I raise my hand
I don’t understand
“Oh, Teacher, may I use the restroom, pleeeeeease!”
“I gotta go peeeeeee!”
It’s not that I object to a by-product
It’s just the by-product’s got the better part of me
And, I really gotta pee
… call it an experiment in biology… can we… just call it an experiment in biology?

From what I can see, the anatomy making up me…
Well… if you want to get scientifical about my genital
I really gotta pee
When I don’t understand, I raise my hand

Me? I guess I major in biology… gee
Gee whiz, I guess I’m a master in biology
Like a Phd. I got a pee
Got my masters in biology
It mastered me
I really gotta pee

bookmark_borderCoefficient Of Friction

LYRICS
And, now… for some science friction:
The coefficient of friction
µ (Mu)
Saved my life… how about you?
Why the fuss?
Friction is why rain doesn’t kill us

“In the real world” we all have some friction when we touch each other
Reach out and touch
Reach out and touch
… touch each other

The coefficient of friction
Let us go dimensionless
Well, er, a… we’re scalar
Curiously similar to measuring your luminosity
As in Candela. See. See?
The coefficient of friction

For that matter, when it comes to water… don’t drag a dead horse
Thus, the fuss — friction is why rain doesn’t kill us
Join the frictional force
µ (Mu), µ (Mu), µ (Mu)
The herd heard
If only in name, will it ever be the same?
