Schrödinger's Cat In a Box

"Schrödinger's Cat" is a famous thought experiment that poses the question, when does a quantum system stop existing as a superposition of states and become one or the other? Schrodinger's Cat in a Box was created for LBNL's yearly NanoFest film festival and is a parody of dickinabox. Total production cost: $50.

Why is it Schrodinger's cat in a box? I don't get it. The "puss in a box" part is funny, but why do guys have a puss in the box?

[tevryan]

Err...Thanks? Schrodinger was a physicist. See the description. As for guys having a puss in the box... Uncertainty principle says there's a good chance it's a di@# :P

One tiny criticism for you guys: you should have taken the cat out at the end of the video

to see whether it's alive or dead.

(Funny everyone on the internet who demonstrates Schrodinger's cat experiment dumps out a LIVE cat from their boxes rather than a dead cat. Hmm... doesn't sound 50-50 to me.)

BRILLIANT just for the idea alone for this parody!

And the execution was great, too!
