Graduate students Patrick Bennett and Ryan Miyakawa at UC Berkeley made an entry for the "What is Nano" video competition, where people submit their explanations of what exactly nanotechnology means.

However, instead of a boring lecture with slides, they made an amazing Sesame Street-style musical, complete with homemade puppets! (The singer is Glory Liu)

Six Degrees of Puppets

Posted by Stacy in Blog & Internet on January 14, 2009 at 11:41 pm

Worth 1000 contests always fascinate me, so Worth 1000 + Muppets (most of them are Muppets, anyway, but you’ll also find Wallace, Chucky and Alf) = pretty sweet. This particular contest asked Photoshoppers to stick puppets in unlikely situations. The one above is by taltieri is probably my favorite, but Animal in 300 and Bert and Ernie in 3:10 to Yuma are pretty awesome too. The Kermit and Miss Piggy entry is just… disturbing.
