Billy alerted me to this TED Talk presentation on an MIT Media Labs project that used new “femto photography” techniques that allow us to watch — in VERY slow motion — a light beam pass through a bottle. Amazing. Makes me think about Einstein’s old thought experiment about running alongside a light wave (but of course here they are slowing down time…)
Here are some details on how they did this:
