Cymatics - The Art of Sound Waves

clipped from en.wikipedia.org Cymatics Cymatics is the study of wave phenomena. It is typically associated with the physical patterns produced through the interaction of sound waves in a medium. clipped from www.collectiveperception.com clipped from en.wikipedia.org A simple experiment demonstrating the visualisation of cymatics can be done by sprinkling sand on a metal plate and vibrating the plate, for example by drawing a violin bow along the edge, the sand will then form itself into standing wave patterns such as simple concentric circles. The higher the frequency, the more complex the shapes produced, with certain shapes having similarities to traditional mandala designs. clipped from www.youtube.com clipped from en.wikipedia.org In 2007 Thomas J. Mitchell and his son Stuart told the press they had decoded "frozen music" based on sculptures in Rosslyn Chapel, in part by using cymatics.[6] clipped from www.youtube.com
