Yeah that's really cool, I clicked on the title of this thread as soon as I read it!

"Chris also did the pits in a CD – here’s what they look like, just for contrast:"

Hmm, reminds me of what's inside a music box.

Nice, but I already thought LP's were groovy and cd's were the pits (ba-da---bump).

Seriously... these are way cool. I always enjoy ultra mag images and high speed filming. Thanks!
