Upcoming Project Sneak Peak!!
I'll be making an announcement about this in my next video, but I wanted to share with y'all here on Patreon first..I've signed on to do a physics learning course with Youtube! I've been working so hard with my mostly-remote team to write and prepare for this course. It's taken a ton of energy, but I'm super excited for it. The course is intended to be an intro physics 101 or AP Physics 1 review course combined with real-w...

Dianna's DIY Demos: Slime Climb
Slime can... CLIMB! This is an easy, awesome demo to do at home if you're able to get the materials. Educational, relaxing, and slimy :)
NEW Annual Membership Option!
Hello Physics Phanatics!This is a quick little FYI, but might be nice for some of you! Patreon just gave us the option to allow you to pledge annually rather than monthly, and in doing so, save 16% on your membership. I was invited to participate in a beta for this option, and thought it would be great to give you all the choice. You can switch over to annual at any point, and save on a whole year of Physics Girl antics. You can always stick with...
Post-Video Reflection!
Hey y’all!I wanted to try something new — a sort of reflection on my latest video to provide you all with some more context and some insight into our the behind the scenes process. SO Levi (my editor) and I sat down to talk about what inspired us to create it, what we learned from it, and how the production process went.Let me know how you all like this type of video because it was super fun and helpful for us, so I’d love to do it again fo...

Edit: Thanks for your feedback, and taking a look, y'all! I hope you enjoyed the small teaser of the footage. Those are the two clips I was most excited about. I'm going to turn off commenting on the doc for now.PS - Thanks to Brian and Margaux, I may officially have to change the spelling to "happy fizzixing." :)Hi Noethers, Curies and Rides! I'm in the process of working on a Ping Pong Cannon video. This video has taken a ro...

Bloopers pt. 4: "I knew you knew I was gonna laugh"
The #oneTakeWonder is back at it again, this time featuring my attempt at filming with a cold (in the pre-COVID19 times, don't worry). You'll also get to see the origin of my title as a #oneTakeWonder and the time Levi tried to look at me while filming, but not through the camera....creepy. And hilarious.I hope this brings you some giggles.

What's Dianna into now?? (part 2)
Hey awesome patrons! I'll be honest — it feels a little odd to share what foods I've been enjoying in the midst of a global pandemic... but it's fun to remember the mundane normal things, even during uncertain times. So here you go! Things that I'm into right now. Other good things that didn't make the cut: hand-washing, social-distancing, self-isolating, online rounds of board games, and reputable sources spreading good inf...
Chocolate Trials!
I probably don't have to tell you guys this, but it's been a weird week. I hope you all are doing well and are staying safe and sane.In completely random and unrelated-to-anything news, I've been reaching out to chocolate companies to see if they're interested in partnering to make a super secret science/chocolate project! I haven't worked with anyone yet... but I was sent some samples this week that brought a lot of joy to ou...
Reminder - Livestream in 60 mins
Hey everyone!Here is the link to the livestream in case you missed it in the last post: https://youtu.be/N0ZqxSv3r_E12pm PT/ 8pm GMT
Filming in Vancouver, WA 🥶
It is a little chilly!! I put this massive silly robe (a strange holiday gift from YouTube) in my suitcase as padding for the experiments. Turns out it’s perfect for thawing frozen Diannas. What are we filming, you ask? I’m with Darren Dyk, an expert high speed cinematographer filming a bunch of experiments. That’s why the lights behind me are blinding. You need mucho light to get such high frames per second (up to 18,000 FPS today).
Livestream #3
Heyyy everyone,The next livestream will be happening on Thursday, February 27th 12pm PST/8*pm GMT here: https://youtu.be/N0ZqxSv3r_EThis week is going to be an exciting one. Tomorrow, I'm traveling to Portland with my editor, Levi, to film some really awesome science experiments with my friend Darren from the Youtube channel Beyond Slow Motion.While I'm there, I'm going to be doing a patron-only livestream with Darren where we'll ...
Bloopers: anti-succeeding at anti-matter science
"Oh no. Oh no, the giggles are coming" - my editor, Levi. In this video, please enjoy the very scientific process of trial and ERROR from the #OneTakeWonder. BTW, the nickname "One Take Wonder," is a very sarcastic one used by Levi, which came from the SLAC (World's Largest Lens) video bloopers. I haven't posted those yet. Watch out for that moment when I post those bloopers next month!
If my phone were named after a scientist...
Does anyone else name their electronic devices? Because I definitely do.If my phone were named after a scientist (which it is), which would it be?If y'all guess the right answer, I might just share the name of my computer too
