Time Warp
IN A WORLD WHERE EVERYTHING IS SPEEDING UP, TIME WARP SLOWS IT DOWN TO UNVEIL THE MOTION OF HIGH-VELOCITY EVENTS IN SPECTACULAR CLARITY
Do you know how your dog uses its tongue to drink? How does a face contort when punched by a UFC contender? What happens when an apple is hit by a bullet? These are just a few events that happen at speeds beyond the perception of our normal senses. In Discovery Channel's new series TIME WARP, hosts Jeff Lieberman and Matt Kierney will alter speed and radically change the lens of time by breaking down each of these events to show us exactly what happens. Episodes of TIME WARP premiere every Wednesday at 2100 hrs (9:00 pm SIN/HK), starting January 7. Encores on Thursday at midnight (12:00 am), 0800 hrs (8:00 am) and 1600 hrs (4:00 pm); Saturday at 1400 hrs (2:00 pm); and Sunday at 0100 hrs (1:00 am) and 1800 hrs (6:00 pm).
Jeff Lieberman, scientist and teacher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Matt Kearney, a digital photography expert, use new technologies to bring never-before-seen wonders into a form that your body and brain can actually process and comprehend. Using high-speed photography, Jeff and Matt take some natural events (a cat licking its paw, a champagne bottle being opened) - and some not-so-natural (a water balloon to the face, a raw piece of chicken exploding) - and turn them into things of both beauty and learning, in frame-by-frame clarity.
Step into TIME WARP, a world where speed takes on a whole new meaning.
