Phun with Physics!

Ever do a little physics or mechanics and try to work out what would happen when you roll a ball down a hill or place a weight on one end of a see-saw? It’s full of calculations, boring as bat shit and will turn you to humanities quicker than you can say friction coefficient.

But it’s not really all that hard, it’s just time consuming and requires lots of calculating. Well some guy realised that and worked out that with the computing power we have lying around in our washing machines lately, doing all the calculations isn’t really going to be a problem.

I present PHUN!



It’s a fucking amazing physics program that lets you actually try out all the things that would normally take you several years to calculate. You can add motors and build all kinds of machines in it. There are hours of fun in this little program. Search on youtube for Phun.

If you want to keep it simpler and funnerer then there is another program that lets you play with physics but presents it as a game. It’s called Magic Pen and it’s as addictive as crack laced Pringles.


Seeing shit this creative almost makes we wish I didn’t spend all my free time drinking beer and watching old Simpsons cartoons. Almost.
