Rappin' about CERN's Large Hadron Collider! Links below...Apparently YouTube fixed the sound! Still, Will Barras made two options trying to get around the original problems:Other YouTube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3iryBLZCOQVimeo: http://www.vimeo.com/1431471?pg=embed&sec=1431471Vimeo is downloadable if you log in.There has been a lot of interest in the original mp3, lyrics, and vocals for remixing. You can find all that here:https://www.msu.edu/~mcalpin9/lhc_rap/largehadron.htmlThere's also been interest in translation. You can get a subtitle-free version from Vimeo here (downloadable):http://www.vimeo.com/1730771With backing track available here (with and without Hawking-style voice):http://barras.ws/rappin.htmlGo ahead and translate, rap it, and post it! Just give us a shout-out, and it's probably a good idea to include the following credits ;-)Images came from:particlephysics.ac.uk, space.com, the Institute of Physics, NASA, Symmetry, and MarvelI forgot Einstein Online, and they called me out: http://www.einstein-online.infoAnd I forgot Physics World (dunno what I was thinking when I put together the extra dimensions bit). Steve Abel set me to rights (but made no demands): http://physicsworld.com/cws/article/print/403The talented dancers doubled as camera people, with some work by Neil Dixon. Stock footage is CERN's.Will Barras is responsible for the killa beats:http://www.ling.ed.ac.uk/~s9527813/And thanks to MC Hawking, who first thought of using computer-voice to bring Stephen Hawking to the world of rap :-)http://www.mchawking.com/The rapper has a day job (we agree this is a good thing) as a science writer. http://www.katemcalpine.comThey'll have a lot of data to sort. 15 million GB per year, actually.

Nov 18, 2008 - If more rap songs was as educational as this, then maybe, just maybe I would give it a chance. Good work there.

Nov 19, 2008 - Oh yeah... CERN represents!
coder0xff Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - That was pretty good. Albeit, kinda dumbed down... of course. I'm just disappointed the LHC is being shut down for a while, after that superconductor quenching accident. I was hoping to hear about its results before I got deployed to Afghanistan. I may not be able to catch up on it until I'm back home.
