Astronomy Inspired Design in Media: Part 13
Willow (2022)
Episode 1: The Gales
8-pointed stars are commonly used as a rose compass, with four primary directions (north, east, south, west) as well as the right secondary directions (north-east, south-east, south-west, north-west)
Compasses align to the magnetic field and can be created with the help of a magnet. There are three types of magnets: naturally occurring, manufactured, and induced
Some naturally occurring compasses are the result of magnetic materials like lodestone while a manufactured compass is when a material suspeptiavke to magnetic fields is magnetized. This can happen by rubbing wool on a thin piece of metal or cooling liquid metal in the presence of a strong magnetic field. The final kind of magnet is an induced magnet like an electromagnet. Electromagnets are the result of running a current through a wire. Moving current generates magnetic field and in then a magnetic field generated current. This is principle of electromagnetism (more information to build your own electromagnet)
“Astronomy Inspired Design in Media” is Wednesday (as I find them)

IT SPINS! Handmade electric motor! Entirely out of wire! They said it couldn't be done, but I have proven -- it merely shouldn't be done!
Photos don't really capture how ridiculously complicated this thing was to build, so I managed to film myself assembling the components too! Very proud of that.
In total, I've been working on this project on and off for roughly two years. This motor is my third version, though I went through something like seven designs of the commutator section (not counting how many failures it took to build a working example of a given design). I'm very proud of getting this to work at all.
Some close-up photos of all the components:
Six-way commutator. As the motor spins, this delivers electricity to only the correct pair of magnets at a time, leaving the other four off.
Magnet coils. I wound these by hand from very thin insulated wire. The center is a spiral of thicker insulated wire (darker orange) that protects the thin stands from the steel core and then wraps around the outside to hold everything in place.
Spring-loaded arms. These deliver electricity from the stationary frame into the rotating axle. They also have to hinge up out of the way or else there's no room to fit the rotor in place during assembly.
All the components laid out together before assembly.
And the full motor in all its glory!
#wire#crafting#electric motor project#steampunk I guess#IT FINALLY SPINS#and it's made entirely of wire#no permanent magnets just metal and electricity#even just making the video was a decent-sized project on its own#so proud of this

charmed + disarmed
#maccadam#MTMTE#TF Pharma#moving GIF#does this count as bot jewelry or lingerie?#they're supposed to be magnets with tassels#rhinestones and such#though that looks more like a flickering electric grid on his turbine than a sparkling net reflecting ambient light#which I suppose might be rather apt for the genre#but really the unsubtle effect is because I didn't want to put any more effort into this thing than I already have#even though this is just repurposing old art#...one of these days I'll draw something new#in the meantime I have a lot of writing to do

them making magnets
#silly warframes. that's not how you make magnets#did you just said alchemy exists in wf universe?#welp screw physics then cold plus electricity is magnetic yeah whatever you said just ignore electromagnetism all you like#gauss prime is very unhappy#okay enough nerdy tags#i just spent a fuck ton of plat on them so at least im gonna do something to commemorate those ~200p i just forfeited#im not gonna do the lineart and rendering properly i already did that with their normal versions and i don't wanna go through that again#call me lazy or something#also i like their normal version a LOT more than their prime version. probably gonna swap to their normal skin like how i did with rhino#their normal ver looks sillier and more huggable what can i say#warframe#warframe frost#warframe frost prime#warframe volt#warframe volt prime#my art

"he would not fucking do that" but its me reworking the fic im writing because I originally had Tim doing something early in the morning despite knowing full well that he would be honk-shooing it face-first into his keyboard for like ten hours instead
#SIGH#I need to shove blorbos into a room together that DO NOT want to talk#like I can do it but it feels a little like trying to put together magnets with the same electrical charge.#playing 5D chess against fictional characters >:(#no im not dropping the fic yet I have several chapters to write and am on ch 1 draft 1#if I even post it at all lmao#batman#batman comics#batfam#batfamily#tim drake#red robin#fanfiction#dc#dc comics#detective comics#dcu#dc universe#ao3#archive of our own

So, interestingly enough, I am en electrician, and the ways that electromagnetism and electricity work together is so closely intertwined that writers really should take advantage of how much of a GOD Magneto is. Like he says it somewhere, but he controls a very fundamental force of nature, and in theory, the list of shit he can't do is shorter than what he can with his powers. It's always just a mashup of whether or not the writer is going to take advantage of that, or if they have to nerf him for plot reasons. Like, for instance, he should team up with Storm way more often, because together they'd be overwhelmingly unstoppable.
i think my favorite interpretation of the extent of erik's powers really is if he just decides/knows to lock in cause Theoretically Potentially Maybe Im Not A Scientist Dont Quote Me every atom has the potential to be magnetized. like my brother and i love talking about this cause you just know in the sixties they really werent thinking that much with magneto's powers and then Unfortunately As Humans we learned more and its like 'oh ok so he's an immense threat for a reason beyond what we figured Thats Nice'
him and storm DEF could be more of a threat if they worked consistently together and i loved bein able to see that near the end of FoX and Resurrection. that was rad ....
#snap chats#i mean his heart also exploded the first time they tried BUT HE HAS THAT UNDER CONTROL NOWWW HES OK...#but more importantly woah ... Electrician .... i have such colorful people in my inbox thats so cool ..#back to magneto tho i think its doubly funny/interesting that the earth's protected by a magnetic field#there's SOME kinda joke or.. connection i can make here i just cant do it rn but its there#all in all erik's power is very cool and very deadly but most importantly very cool and i love his powers and him very much#wait TANGENT didy ou guys know i threw up after realizing why magnemite was an electric type...#im so sorry like i realized how closely relarted electricity and magnets were some days ago and i was like#'OHHHHH THAT MAKES SENSE' girl i gotta leave.

*coughs* hi hello back to our regularly scheduled program… here are some of my headcanons about fark!! i’m not an engineer so don’t come after me
#ignore how weird the inside of the shoe looks ok that’s just to show the magnets there is other stuff there too i swear#fark#fark stej#stej#spark the electric jester#spark tej#i could write many paragraphs about cooling systems and sensors & whatnot#i love robots i just think they’re neat#hi fark you have retroreflective eyes now#my art#fanart#gutzart

LOOK AT HER
Normal cat :)
#bjd#:3c#im gonna explode shes too cute#she has an electric plug tail too i just need to glue the magnet to it before i can put it on#I can change what the tv screen displays so ill probably do something silly eventually stay tuned

I thought about the Pokemon Sun Pokedex entry for Magneton, because it's one of my favorite dex entries and how a few times, I thought about it with HMS because - you know. Three of them. Although the general idea of drawing them as Magnemite and Whole as a Magneton was also funny so uh. Here.
This is the entry by the way:
Why does Whole suddenly become a shiny Magneton when they all evolve?
When Harmonia shines or something--
#Tori's Doodles of Mellarky#Chonny Jash#CCCC#Pokemon#Magnemite#Magneton#I swear to God I'll draw more serious stuff eventually but I love doodling silly things like this#I'm lying about the reason why Whole's a shiny Magneton btw#It's actually because I thought the magnet ends were black and white but. They weren't.#I was going too far with the bit though so. I didn't think of 'Harmonia shines' until I was typing this#Also in all seriousness I think if Mind were a Pokemon trainer he'd have a Magnezone#I was reading other dex entries and it matches at least some theming or at least themeing i see with Mind#Primarily the ones about storms. Pretty neat#Also it was surprisingly hard to draw this many circles#Do you think Mind would prefer psychic types electric types or steel types#Oh no now I'm thinking of a Pokemon AU again

Not Only Is Mother Mothering, He Is Not Fucking Playing Around
(im pretty sure this is the Only Time jay has ever created A Fucking Shield and i am besotted with the implications)
#Like Is That Manipulation Of Magnetic Fields Of What????#jay walker#jay ninjago#whoever still thinks cole was the og leader before lloyd is.. wrong#also techno cooperating >>>>#*#someone better at physics than me pls give ideas what aspect of electricity this shield making might be

they released the full body image for the outfits and i now get to roast murr on unsafe lab practices (<- worked in labs before). Explanation in tags
#What he's wearing are just round glasses which is cute and all but also proper lab safety goggles have special rims that would also protect#your eyes from different sides#Cause things could splash from the side too not just in front of you#Covering your hands: good. Not covering your wrist: not good. Especially since your wrist has some pretty important vessels#I've seen some nasty burns that you really don't wanna get on your wrist cause again. Vessels are there and you'd rather burn your hand#Than your wrist.#USUALLY you'd tie your hair up if it's long so it doesn't accidentally burn or get caught in anything#But i feel like his hair is in this weird stage where it's like...kinda short so it's not TOO bad but also still long?#Would still tie it up tho#I am not explaining the chemicals or the lab coat i think that's pretty self explanatory. C'mon murr these are basics.#Metal is awful in almost all labs#you'll get burns if something goes wrong with electricity#Also can heat up if it absorbs radiation. More burns#Not to mention it's magnetic and a disaster if it gets caught in. Say. MRI machines#Depending on the metal it may also have certain reaction with other chemicals and. You guessed it. More burns.#murr hart#mahoyaku#mhyk#This is nowhere as bad as RIQUET WEARING *SHORTS* IN LAB#Also cain and oz need to tie their hair up IMMEDIATELY

THEY COULD HAVE FUCKED NASTY IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT SHOP AND IT STILL WOULD HAVE BEEN LESS INTIMATE AND SEXUALLY CHARGED THAN THIS WHOLE ENTIRE SCENE
#LIKE THE CHEMISTRY THE TENSION THE MAGNETISM THE SPARK THE ELECTRICITY THE YEARNING THE CRAVING THE RESTRAINT THE WANT THE DEVOTION#THE REVERENCE THE TENDERNESS THE DEDICATION THE DESIRE THE WONDER THE CARE THE LOVE#IM EMOTIONALLY SPIRITUALLY AND METAPHYSICALLY ON A WHOLE DIFFERENT LEVEL OF EXISTENCE#IM ASCENDING ONTO A HIGHER SPHERE OF HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS#I HAVE ACTIVELY FLATLINED MY HIGHER BRAIN FUNCTIONS HAVE CEASED IM CLINICALLY DEAD#monica watches last twilight

i love him
tbh i think the lineart is better than the final result
#wow how do you know i can't render properly#definitely not because of all the crappy job i've done right?#anyway#those are gauss's law for electric and magnetic field btw#i wanted to make that the moment i know there's a warframe named gauss in the game#yes im a nerd#i use him so much im kinda attached to him now#but tbh it's kinda hard to make him look good with my normal comic quality#i hope that bunny ears would make him recognizable enough#also have to figure out how to draw volt#i think his face looks too much like a face that i somehow just can't really handle well all of a sudden#and im gonna make gauss prime badger him so much i kinda have to get over whatever obstacle that is#warframe#warframe gauss#warframe gauss prime#my art
