Veo que tanto en Hardformat como en Boing Boing mencionan una galería en Synthgear de imágenes bastante curiosas, tomadas con un microscopio electrónico:

Chris Supranowitz is a researcher at The Insitute of Optics at the University of Rochester. Along with a number of other spectacular studies (such as quantum optics, trapping of atoms, dark states and entanglement), Chris has decided to look at the relatively boring grooves of a vinyl record using the institute’s electron microscope. Well, not boring for me.

From what I read, it’s not just a simple matter of sticking a record under a fancy microscope, as there is a lot of preparation (such as gold-sputtering the surface) and post-processing to be done. Having said that, the results are very cool:

Estoy de acuerdo, los resultados molan, y mucho. La página de Chris Supranowitz no es una mala visita para un lunes por la mañana.
