Focus Description:

On the table on a thin stand there is a rather wide but low saucepan. Toss the dough from palm to palm, knead it, toss it up and catch it again, and then place it in the pan. Pour a glass of water into the pan, salt the dough, and then stir it, occasionally tasting the food being prepared.

Lift the pan up and lightly swirl the contents to mix it better. Place the pan on the table and shake out the sparkling, multi-colored vanilla powder from the bag into it. Then take a fairly large tube, made in the form of a rectangular school pencil case from colored cardboard, and, holding it with both hands over the pan, squeeze the paste out of it. A thin colored ribbon will flow into the pan.

When the tape runs out, set the tube aside and jerk the pan up. On the table there will be a large cake decorated with a voluminous pattern on top.

Focus secret:

The secret of the trick is in the pan. Its bottom is not located at the bottom, like ordinary pans, but closer to the middle. Below the bottom, a cake is placed in a hollow space in advance - not a real one, but glued together from pieces of synthetics, for example from pieces of foam sponge, and painted with colored ink or iodine solution. The foam rubber compresses very easily and then straightens without any traces of compression.

Focus Instant Cake

In the upper cavity of the pan, two small partitions should be strengthened, dividing it into three compartments - for flour, water and tape, so that they do not mix together and can be used in subsequent demonstrations.

Externally, the pan is no different from the real thing. It can be made of cardboard, synthetics, etc. The main thing is that the places where the liquid gets into are waterproof.

A colored ribbon about 3 m long is inserted inside the tube like an accordion. In this case, one end of the tape should be directed downwards of the box, and the other end upwards. In order for the tape to flow out of the tube without stopping, it is necessary to provide a movable flap that could regulate (by pressing a finger) the speed at which the tape comes out.

The dough is a half-inflated balloon, into which a little water is poured or a little sand is poured for weight. Such a ball, if painted white and lightly powdered, from a distance will really look like dough.

You should lift the pan during the demonstration to “mix the contents” so that the audience does not suspect that along with it you are lifting from the table a thin cardboard stand that covers the opening of the pan from the bottom, on which the foam cake stands.

When all the ingredients are mixed and the “dough” is kneaded, sharply lift the pan up by the handles, and the cake remaining on the table will appear before the audience.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

Petgugu Global cat litter 15.04.2024

Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Virtual nanoreactor will invent new chemical reactions 05.12.2014

At its core, the "nanoreactor" created by scientists at Stanford University is a virtual chemist's kit for discovering new reactions and previously unknown chemical mechanisms.

It is necessary to enter the target structure of chemicals into a computer model, set parameters such as temperature or pressure, and wait for the results of the reaction between them, which will be calculated by special algorithms.

“You can just push a button and the model will tell you all the reactions that are relevant,” says lead developer Todd Martinez. “It uses a hybrid approach that includes physics and machine learning to discover all the ways your chemicals, including reactions or mechanisms not yet known."

"Nanoreactor" can simulate 100 atoms, giving the result within a couple of hours. The developers believe that it will open up new opportunities for the development of catalysts, increasing the efficiency of known reactions, especially in areas such as fuel cells or batteries. In addition, the use of a computer model will provide a better understanding of biochemical reactions and may lead to the development of new drugs.
