Video footage of the large buckyball
These sculptures are inspired by Julian Voss-Andreae’s graduate research in physics at Anton Zeilinger’s group in Vienna (Austria). The experiment explored the transition between Quantum Mechanics and the familiar world of classical physics and demonstrated the passage of single Carbon-60 molecules (Buckyballs) through more than one opening at once, thereby confirming matter behaves fundamentally as waves.
