Vimeo Offline: Yesterplays

Guys, we’re trying something a little different for Vimeo Offline next week. Vimeo Artist, and long-time Vimeo member, Alex Itin will be taking us through his personal history of sorts of the Vimeo using videos and spoken word. This screening will be part memoir, part screening, part conversation and part Vimeo time machine. Myself and a few others will be joining Alex during the conversation in the order we came into his life on Vimeo. Should be really cool and a boat-load of fun. So come! Reservations recommended.

Wednesday, October 21st - 8pm for free

58 north 3rd, Brooklyn

I’M TELLING YOU PEOPLE, THIS SHIT IS GOING TO FUCK US.

Is the Large Hadron Collider Being Destroyed by Malicious Forces from the Future?

It might sound far-fetched, but so does smashing protons together at light speed to recreate the conditions of the start of the universe. According to the Times, two physicists posit that the reason that the Large Hadron Collider (and, previously, its unbuilt American counterpart) keeps running into problems isn’t bad luck or shoddy workmanship. It’s that the LHC’s quest to discover the Higgs boson—a heretofore only theorized particle that scientists believe is what gives objects mass—is creating problems to keep itself from being discovered:

“A pair of otherwise distinguished physicists have suggested that the hypothesized Higgs boson, which physicists hope to produce with the collider, might be so abhorrent to nature that its creation would ripple backward through time and stop the collider before it could make one, like a time traveler who goes back in time to kill his grandfather.”
