Letter from Libya
Words by: Lourd de Veyra | Artwork by: War Espejo
Dear mahal,
Kumusta na kayo diyan? As expected, magulo dito sa Libya. Nakakatakot dito. Hindi ko alam kung nasaan ako. Hindi rin ako makalabas ng building. Binabaril nila kahit sino. Nagliliparan ang mga bala. Sigaw nang sigaw ang mga tao sa labas.
Walang sinabi yung mga aktibista sa Mendiola. Dito sunog nang sunog ng kung ano-ano. Siyempre hindi namin maintindihan yung nakasulat sa mga placard. Pero hindi mo malalaman kung kalaban o kakampi. Basta ilag ka na lang.

At TED2011, Physicist Janna Levin spoke about the sound of black holes:
Black holes can bang on space…like mallets on a drum, and they have a very characteristic song.
Black holes can be heard if not seen.
These black holes will ring in a frequency that your ears can hear. You head would be squeezed and stretched [so you might have difficulty hearing them.]
Imagine a lighter black hole falling into a heavy black hole…We can predict what that sound will be…We know that as it [the smaller black hole] falls in [to another black hole] it gets faster and louder and eventually we will hear the little guy fall into the bigger guy. [Levin plays a recording that vaguely resembles a heart beat, which then speeds up to what sounds like a basketball dribbling on a court. Levin notes it “chirps up at the end”].](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lhfxymrHK31qb8ulho1_500.jpg)
