<em>the Body Dryer team has announced that it will not be bringing 
the Body Dryer to market despite gathering pledges six times the 
campaign goal amount. The corporation launched to manufacture the Body 
Dryer is being shut down and assets sold. Contributors will not receive a
 full refund, but according to the company they will receive a 100 
percent refund for shipping costs, with the remaining money being shared
 equally. It is estimated this will see contributors refunded about 
US$45 for each unit pledged towards.</em>

From <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" target="_blank">Dyson’s Airblade</a>
 to more straight-forward designs, hand dryers are run-of-the-mill these
 days. Now a team of designers out of the US has turned the idea upside 
down to create the Body Dryer.
            
        
            According to Tyler Overk from the Body Dryer Team, the 
body dryer is designed out of a need to “replace bacteria filled and 
environmentally harmful bathroom towels.”<br />

The Body Dryer is sturdy enough to support a 325 lb (170 
kg) person and is reportedly capable of drying a damp individual in 
approximately 30 seconds using compressed, ionized air. It has 
strategically angled vents to provide optimal removal of the water and 
the air stream can be personalized through different shaped nozzles on 
the footplate that develop a cylindrical tunnel of air around the user. 
There's also the option of hot or cold air and a digital scale is built 
into the unit<br />

The Body Dryer team has already more than doubled its US$50,000 crowd funding goal through <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" target="_blank">Indiegogo</a>. It's anticipated the unit will sell for US$250 should it make it to market.

Astronomers have long known that stars can vibrate like peeling
 bells. This observation has ushered in an entire sub discipline of 
astronomy known as astroseismology, in which astronomers attempt to 
better understand the structure of their charges by studying the way 
they vibrate.<br />
It has also led to a bit of fun. Just as ordinary bells produce
 musical notes, astronomers have used the data from vibrating stars to 
create audible sounds, for example in<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" target="_blank">this work</a>.<br />
Today, Burak Ulas at Izmir Turk College Planetarium in Turkey 
has gone a step further and composed a piece of music based on the 
chords recorded from the pulsations of a star called Y Cam A, one of a 
pair of eclipsing stars in a binary system.<br />
A chord is a simultaneous sound of three or more different 
notes, or frequencies, with certain intervals between them. It turns out
 that Y Cam A vibrates in over a number of frequencies. Indeed, it 
produces a wave comprised of four sine-like frequencies that Ulas has 
teased apart and transformed into a series of musical chords with the 
help of the free audio software Audacity. <br />
These chords form the basis of, and inspiration for, a piano 
composition that Ulas recorded separately. He then combined them both 
using a digital audio editor called GoldWave.  In a sense he has used Y 
Cam A as a musical instrument.
