The only thing bad about eating ice cream during the summer is how fast the frozen deliciousness melts. After two minutes, it’s dripping onto your elbows and your forearm is sticky for the rest of the day. No one likes melted ice cream. That’s why it’s so bizarre that watching ice cream melt in this time lapse by Ilsoo Yang is so mesmerizing. Like seeing the cosmos in our cones.
