Figure 2: Formation of nanoparticles by rubbing solid C60 between fingertips.
We discovered that rubbing bulk solids of C60 between fingertips generates nanoparticles including the ones smaller than 20 nm.
Nevertheless, formation of nanoparticles by such a mundane treatment as rubbing between fingertips is unprecedented and noteworthy.
Solid C60 (1.5 mg) was placed between two glass microscope slides (76 mm × 26 mm, thickness 0.8 – 1.0 mm) and rubbed repeatedly between fingertips for a few minutes (Fig. 1a).
Moreover, efficiency of size-reduction by rubbing between fingertips appears to be comparable to that of hand-grinding with an agate motor and pestle, by which approximately 34 wt% of C60 was turned to particles smaller than 5 μm8,9.
As I travelled I met new terms as well as salvaging old ones: a painter in the Western Isles who used landskein to refer to the braid of blue horizon lines on a hazy day; a five-year-old girl who concocted honeyfur to describe the soft seeds of grasses pinched between fingertips.

Thus, the cooperative training increased synchrony not only between fingertip movements of the two participants but also between cortical regions across the two brains.
To control tactile friction, that is the friction between fingertip and counter-body, the role of surface texture is required to be unveiled and defined.
The first one, the training set, consisting of free fingers movements is used to construct the mapping between fingertip position and joint angles.
The maximal mean error between fingertip measured position and fingertip position obtained from simulated joint angles and forward kinematics is 0.99±0.76 mm for the training set and 1.49±1.62 mm for the test set.
