Nerd Wars Update - Scientific and Intellectual

I've submitted two more projects for my Nerd Wars Challenges.  This time they are both handspun yarn.  With these two done that only leaves two more to complete before the end of the month to get full points.  We'll see, because one challenge is going to require the use of acrylic yarn and I have issues with that.  Oh well, that's another post. 

Here is my Intellectual Challenge - 

Your challenge is to select any element from the periodic table and craft something inspired by its properties.
Challenge--Select one element from the currently accepted Periodic Table of Elements and create a project that you can connect to the element via its properties (such as the structure, element number, common uses / location, atomic weight, atomic symbol, volume, etc).

Here is my submission:

For this challenge, the element that inspired me was Copper.
Brief description: copper is one of the most important metals. Copper is reddish with a bright metallic lustre. It is malleable, ductile, and a good conductor of heat and electricity
I have some gorgeous Suri Alpaca in my herd that have a reddish tone to their beautiful brown. The roving that I created from them especially after adding Silk really created this metallic look to add to the natural luster that the breed already has PLUS Alpaca is an amazing insulator and keeps you nice and warm ergo heat.
Now, we vampires have been known to make use of Copper. It helps enhance our psychic powers.
All I know is that psi-vampires will sometimes use silver and/orcopper to enhance or depress their own feeding abilities. It is important though that they wear it where it can get in contact with their skin, otherwise the effects are null. In that regard, a vampire who will wear silver will depress its abilities, which can be very useful for more advanced vamps who wish to be close to someone without feeding on them subconsciously. One that will wear copper will increase its powers since copper will act as a catalyst for its feeding. Weak psi-vamps will find copper a wonderful thing to have around…Jacynthe Durocher, The Vampire Project

This is my Scientific Challenge:
 Anatomy of Nerddom
Anatomy and physiology are such amazing science subjects. They are also often manipulated in the fiction surrounding our nerddoms. Some characters have human features mixed with reptilian, others have an atypical circulatory system. This month, embrace the A & P!
The goal of this month’s topic is to narrow your focus away from the entire body as a whole, and pick instead a system: skeletal, muscular, digestive, nervous, endocrine, reproductive, or circulatory.

 This project represents the intestines in the human anatomy. I used fushia wool that I dyed myself and spun coils to show the fluctuations in sizing throughout the intestinal tract. For Team Spirit, I have tied in the intestine spinning through some research on Vampire Folklore in Malaysia. Apparently, there is a Vampire called Penanggalan which is a Flying Head with dangling intestines. This vampire is a female. Here is a LINK to one version of how this Vampire came to be and of course, the WIKI Definition. I have included an artist rendering of this Vampire to show the intestines.

Now...I'm off to investigate Big Bang Theory.  I've never watched it and I'm supposed to submit a project inspired by another form of nerddom.  Apparently I'm not allowed to use my beloved Middle Earth so...a television show it is.
