Fusion in pop-art

Fusion research is not only a physicists thing. It requires software engineers as well. But apart from being a scientific thing, it is present in a pop-culture as well. It manifests itself via various creations revolving around the idea of fusion.

— LEGO —

There are at least two projects tackling fusion devices that are made out of LEGO. First one, is the model of ITER based tokamak chamber. You can find it here: link.

Second one, is a LEGO IDEAS project that resembles ITER Fusion Reactor Segment: link.

— Manga —

There is a whole series of manga comics related to ITER project. Some of them translated to English. You can find the whole series here: link.

— Movies —

I am pretty sure there is a number of movies tackling the topic, but LET THERE BE LIGHT – directed by Mila Aung-Thwin & Van Royko – is a quite nice introduction to the topic. It covers various devices being built all over the world.

— Minecraft —

Last, but not least, you can find Minecraft structures that are resembling tokamaks. One of them, here.

If you know some other pop-art examples related to fusion let me know and I will gladly add them here.
