That's not new, that's called ionized air
The downside is that they're not nearly as efficient as fans with blades
I heard they were planning on using them for cooling cpu's though. That'd be a good idea.

If it was the negative pressure that was creating the air in the first place how did he turn the fan up? Also why did he quickly turn it off? How do you believe in aerodynamics when it's just a theory? (fuck me)

becasue they are reasonable, rational, intelligent, sometimes friendly, non-confromtaional,forward thinking model humans.

about the blade less fan idea, if there was a strong enough electromagnet being alternating on and off fast enough, a vacuum could be created that might be able to be used as a fan however the strength of the electromagnet would be unfeasible.
