2 Things In 1
a: Emulsion ~
b: a liquid plastic
What: "Oh, and as I understand it, the emulsion is like a liquid plastic that has a powder of hardeners suspended in it. When the hardeners are exposed to ultra-violet light they change their molecular state and link together to form a matrix that holds the emulsion together and makes a tough material."

Many Pieces Put Together;correctly
a: Emulsion ~
b: chain linked fence
What: "There is a bit of food chemistry involved in making the mayo emulsion. The acid in the lemon juice and the mustard are reacting with the egg protein and oil fats. Making an emulsion is like building a chain linked fence and to do it successfully you have to allow the reaction to occur at a slow but steady rate. Thus the need to add ingredients in the proper order and at a rate that optimizes the "chain linking" reaction. Any setting on the food processor is too powerful to use. A hand whisk is your best bet."

METAMIA is a free database of analogy and metaphor. Anyone can contribute or search. The subject matter can be anything. Science is popular, but poetry is encouraged. The goal is to integrate our fluid muses with the stark literalism of a relational database. Metamia is like a girdle for your muses, a cognitive girdle.
