It's Alive! Magnetic putty has all the right moves.

A special thanks to Joanne Manaster for sharing this video on Google+ earlier today. Phenomenal.

The putty looks like living skin growing around and engulfing those poor cubes and balls.

Is it weird that "lava-sphincter" is the thing that pops into my head as I watch this? 

Makes me wonder how those hydrated sacs of molecular machines we call cells move and grow.
