Ducky Does What Ducky DoesThis is where I write about things.Thursday, March 06, 2008Phun = Physics + Fun
So I downloaded this awesome program the other day called "Phun" and I've been hooked on it ever since. To use it you simply draw on a completely open background using freehand, boxes, circles, hinges, and other simple devices. Then, you can run a real-time simulation that utilizes all kinds of physics calculations to make a lifelike, working machine.
So if that all sounds a little bit like an engineering class lecture, it is really easier to see it in action than to explain it in words: If those two videos aren't enough for you, it's free to download this amazingly addicting toy.
