Rich Mountain Geology.mp4
Geologically speaking, Cades Cove is a "Fenster". Which comes from the German word for "window". And it really is. Should you stand atop the mountains surrounding the cove, you would be looking through older rock to see younger rock. The cove floor is underlain by limestone, which is younger than the sandstone mountains that surround it on both sides. Millions of years ago, when the continent of Pangaea was coming together, the continent we now call Africa crashed into the continent we now call North America. The mountains that you see to the south of the cove used to sit roughly 15 miles to the southeast. During that collision, they rode the Great Smoky Mountains Fault line up and over a shallow sea that sat at this location. That would have completely covered this valley with mountains. The rock that formed the center of this valley, was a rock called Phyllite. You may have noticed cliffs of shiny rock as you drove into the Cove today. That is exposed Phyllite. Phyllite is a very soft, easily eroded rock, and over the millions of years that this valley has existed, the phyllite has slowly eroded away, again exposing the young limestone sitting underneath the older sandstone that now make up the Smokies crest to the south, and Rich Mountain to the north. Rain and snow continue to erode the valley and have created another unique feature: caves. Stop by Gregory Cave to learn more about the geology of the cove.

Metamorphic Rock Song
This is an assignment for geology at the College of Charleston where i had to talk about a certain subject from class. This is my video and rap for metamorphic rocks. Sorry about the crappy sound quality. Chorus: Metamorphic rocks on the clock, but they the best of all time. If this wasn't true do you think I'd be glued to my seat writing this rhyme? So get a clue and don't be blue, because y'all can sing along. We'll fill you in a little bit, call this the Metamorphic Song. It's ABC's, and 123's of metamorphic rocks; so listen before you get socked. Verse 1: This is how we make it, and this is how we do it. Holla Chucktown, Man I'm not stupid, highly educated by Professor Harris On the nature of rocks and the nature of their parents. You see a metamorphic rock is the third on the wheel And its appearance comes from pre-existing rocks on the real. There's a few distinct features, foliated or not And pressure may exist for some, while some may be hot, Or react to heat I mean, still some may be both. In fact heat and pressure will be applied to most. But foliated may have cleavage, schistosity, or may be gneiss While non foliated have crystals: some like circles, some like rice. I just wish I could take a hike, I just wish I could collect phyllite. I just wish I could go on a date with a nice piece of schist or a nice piece of slate. Chorus Repeat Verse 2: So we back for part two and this might be a little tricky, May not be for the faint of height or those who are quite ...

Cantor Surprises: Head of a Bodhisattva
Head of a Bodhisattva, 2nd - 3rd century
Phyllite
Gift of Mrs. Philip N. Lilienthal, Jr., 1970
This is the head of a bodhisattva, a being who is capable of attaining Buddhahood, but who has made the choice to forego liberation from the cycle of rebirths, nirvana, and to remain in the world in order to guide others along the Buddhist path. Through the raised curl of hair between his eyebrows, urna, indicates his enlightened status, his long hair and moustache imply that he still remains fully involved with the world, and the jeweled diadem indicates his princely status.
This head was made in the ancient kingdom of Gandhara, located at commercial crossroads - between Rome and the Hellenistic world to the west, South Asia, and Central Asia-and like much of Gandharan art, it shows Hellenistic influence.
In this series of short videos, curator Patience Young gives us a closer look at several interesting works in the Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University.
These videos were created as part of a group thesis project to reinvent the museum experience.

TerraFirmaCraft Episode 2: Stone-Age begone!
NOTE: In between this episode and the next, I get another ingot. So, if you wanna, vote for what tool to make next! GET TERRAFIRMACRAFT: terrafirmacraft.com Now with instructions! OR VISIT THE WIKI: terrafirmacraft.com Cuz this shit is hard as balls without a manual. The stone age sucks. It lasts, for the most part, until you get most of your tools upgraded to metal. Stone tools are, relatively on their 'annoyance-to-make'-to-durability scale, quite dumb. They last a few decent uses and fall apart. Like sand! You heard that, Phyllite? You're STUPID LIKE SAND. Or, you could look for Igneous (preferably extrusive) since that stuff's the best. Although rare, found deep and not very fun to extract. Along the road: getting your first ingot. It's HARD. Note that you can't get ALL ingots from firepits, there's a (very cool) upgrade for that. Basically, it needs more than 50% of the temp meter filled to be liquid, don't bother. Too make things worse, the chunks you CAN extract without a pickaxe are needed on a 10:1 ratio. And since they're rare to find amongst random rocks, you'll be scavenging for a large time. On the plus side, it feels SO FUCKING GOOD to smith that pickaxe, even if with 90% durablity. Minecraft saturates, which is fine for building, but for people that want achievements in their rawest form (getting a long, hard and straineous task done), like me, this is much better than 'Achievement Get' pop ups. YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEA!!! I would like to note ...

TerraFirmaCraft Episode 4: All the Zinc you can smelt.
And much more! Veins are filled with delicious, fertile ores. Ores give 4 TIMES AS MUCH ingot-metal as small ores you find on the surface. Or small ores are only worth 1/4th as much, depending on your views. They're also a buttload more common. As you saw, that one vein was loaded with delicious zinc ores. With only 3.5/4 ores needed for a single ingot, I've got all the zinc I need for a while. All I need next is lots of copper and a good deal of flux. But first, a summery of the episode. At first, I'm a bit nervous to get digging. Once I get going with my prospecting pickaxe, I turn unstoppable, getting Zinc in Zeconds! Get it? It's a pun! And also plant a large deal of my seeds, before cheating maps. These maps will be used in my future intents to scour the lands for more ores! I will have to, as Phyllite will only supply Galena (silver and lead ore), Tetrahedrite (copper and silver) and Sphalerite (Zinc). Getting tin and more native copper is better in the long run, since hybrid ores sound kinda iffy on how much they deliver. On top of that, I NEED flux, else those copper ingots are useless! So, what is flux? It's material needed to weld two ingots together (you need 7 double ingots for an anvil) and for welded sheets (used mostly for minecarts and armour). Flux can be won in a variety of ways, and luckily isn't too rare. First, there's surface flux. Found in chunks of Chalk, Dolomite, Limestone and Marble. You need a METAL HAMMER, and will get 2 flux per rock. Borax ...
