Cliff Pickover(@pickover):Mathematics. I love this animation by Daniel Piker (@KangarooPhysics). Each dot follows a path, and takes 3.5 hrs to return to its starting point. (You might think the dots are jittering or sparkling, but on closer inspection they're walking like ants.) Used with permission.
