Laboratory at Home

Have you ever seen those nice experiments with materials on the surface of water forming awesome shapes when growing? They're in some way similar to those of a colonization spreading through a land. And both of these phenomena have a associated entropy, which is related to the order of particles living in our physical space...

If you wanna test all these things taking place at once, you don't need anymore a expensive laboratory under Switzerland nor a supercomputer solving equations. It's enough if you get to live with two guys from any Mediterranean island and let them take the control over your house during several months. After that, you just go back to the kitchen and take as much mesurements as you want on the greatest phenomena of the nature. You'll can see how a colony of cockroaches grows toward the kitchen's door, how the entropy on the sink increased till unbelieveble limits with filthy dishes overboilling the room; and finally, over a pan, you'll can observe how many different kind of bacteria, protozoa or fungi have spread out over the water in it forming a thin film with fractal shape like the one discussed here.

Have a nice day :D!
