Interesting. wonder if it has any practical uses?

perhaps for transferring ultrapure liquids around without any moving parts?

I've heard of people doing this by starting with a soaked piece of thread between 2 containers, which is then pulled away after voltage is applied, leaving a water bridge.

This is a little weirder, but seems to be on-topic for this thread: Link2

Intriguing experiment. I liked this quote:

...the oscillating structures were triggered by the waviness of the voltage supply itself...

Waviness eh?

A thread was started here in Chatting which is nearly identical.

I also have pics on it showing my 1/2 inch bridge at 9kV that I did yesterday.
