Three short clips of a microwave oven. The first clip show creation of a microwave plasma blob. The second clip shows the plasma blobs forming in lightbulbs, including a neon bulb, as they rotate through the microwave fields. When going through microwave nodes, the plasma goes out. The third clip shows hundreds of neon tubes mounted in styrofoam rotating through the microwave fields, revealing the changing pattern of nodes and antinodes.
