My New Favorite Show

27Oct08

There are a few things on television that I rarely miss and if we do have other plans, the DVR is set to record.  This past weekend a show on the Discovery Network made the very short list of DVR(able) shows.

Time Warp is one of the newest shows on Discovery and has really caught my attention.

It is hosted by MIT scientist Jeff Lieberman, Time Warp uses the latest in high-speed photography to show us things that have never been seen before.  Ever want to know what really happens when a water balloon hits a face?  Or a cat licking its paw?  Or a dog drinking from a water bowl?  Sounds strange but you’ve got to check this out.

The series just started on October 15th so there is plenty of time to catch up.  The usual broadcast is Wednesday’s at 8:00pm but they are showing repeats all throughout the week.  Here is the schedule of upcoming shows.

The technology used on the show got me to think that it would be cool, as humans, if we could see the things the same way as the camera sees them.  Might just change our view of the world and how we see and process things.
