Prof Lakshminarayanan Mahadevan looks at the physics of wrinkles, creases and folds - from the small to the very large (video demos), feeds his venus flytrap, then rides on his magic carpet.
I am reminded of the lyric,
I had a job trading bits for pieces
We'd make wrinkles, advertise them as creases...
Interesting article, and good post.

His hippy-dippy attitude about science is actually pretty neat. And I wouldn't mind a flying carpet. Just saying.
