Rappin' about CERN's Large Hadron Collider! Links below...Apparently YouTube fixed the sound! Still, Will Barras made two options trying to get around the original problems: Other YouTube:http://... Vimeo: http://... is downloadable if you log in.
There has been a lot of interest in the original mp3, lyrics, and vocals for remixing. You can find all that here: https://www.msu.edu/~mcalpin9/lhc_rap/largehadron.html
There's also been interest in translation. You can get a subtitle-free version from Vimeo here (downloadable): http://...
With backing track available here (with and without Hawking-style voice): http://...
Go ahead and translate, rap it, and post it! Just give us a shout-out, and it's probably a good idea to include the following credits ;-)
Images came from: particlephysics.ac.uk, space.com, the Institute of Physics, NASA, Symmetry, and Marvel
I forgot Einstein Online, and they called me out: http://...
And I forgot Physics World (dunno what I was thinking when I put together the extra dimensions bit). Steve Abelset me to rights (but made no demands): http://...
The talented dancers doubled as camera people, with some work by Neil Dixon. Stock footage is CERN's.
Will Barras is responsible for the killa beats: http://...
And thanks to MC Hawking, who first thought of using computer-voice to bring Stephen Hawking to the world of rap :-) http://...
The rapper has a day job (we agree this is a good thing) as a science writer. http://...
They'll have a lot of data to sort. 15 million GB per year, actually.Want to get involved and donate your computer's downtime? Try LHC@home: http://...
of course not :) i am chemist and i am also interested ;)

as a biochemist... is it wrong that i'm really turned on by this?

It doesnt make a huge explosion 214, if it did, they wouldnt be able to collide them unless the LHC is disposable.

the LHC can actually have potential into becoming a weapon. when protons collide it makes a huge explosion so it wont be very hard to make it into one. Now u just have to project it somehow through air
