Diamagnetic vapour + electromagnetic grid

[pearlteeth]

I know, I know. I didn't fill out the thing.
But I don't really have a 'problem' to solve, I'm just looking for some vague theoretical speculation...

I'm a new media art student and I'd like to use a grid of electromagnets to undulate a layer of low-lying fog (which would be glycerin + water). I know that water is diamagnetic, but not very and I thought that water vapour might be affected more drastically than 'just water'. any thoughts? would the effects be negligible?

Thanks for your help

!The short answer is that the effects of an electromagnet on a layer of fog would likely be negligible. The primary reason for this is that water vapor is already diamagnetic, meaning that it is naturally repelled by magnets and not attracted to them. This means that, even with a strong electromagnet, the fog would still not be significantly affected by its presence. Additionally, the size, strength, and frequency of the electromagnet would all need to be taken into consideration in order to create any notable effect. What might be more effective is using the electromagnet to generate slight changes in air pressure around the fog. These changes could cause the fog to undulate or swirl, creating interesting visual effects. It would also be possible to use the electromagnets to create eddies or vortices in the fog which could greatly enhance the visual effect. In the end, it really depends on the specifics of the project and what kind of results you are looking for. Experimenting with different electromagnet configurations, sizes, and strengths could help you find the right combination to achieve the effect you are looking for.
