Videos that are Just for Fun
As sound moves through matter, it vibrates the atoms and molecules, which can produce some interesting results.
These videos not only show some of those effects, but thay also demonstrate just how powerful sound really is.
The Cymatics SounderThe study of the effect of wave form (or sound) on matter is called Cymatics. It comes from the Greek word “κῦμα” (pronounced ci.ma). Dr. Hans Jenny (1904-1972), was a Swiss doctor, artist and researcher. He documented the effect of specific frequencies on sand, spores, water, turpentine, iron filings and other substances that were placed on a vibrating plate or membrane. Dr Jenny created a machine called a tono-scope that would send the precise frequency to the plate, through a vibrating crystal. He used a crystal oscillator that would vibrate the plate to a precise frequency. This way, he knew the exact sound or frequency that created the specific forms on the plate. There’s nothing like seeing for yourself the effect that sound has on matter, and for that, we have our own version of the cymatics sounder.

The Tibetan Fountain BowlThe fountain effect occurs because when a bowl is played, the walls of the bowl vibrate. You can feel this vibration when you play the bowl normally. It is this vibration that causes the water to bubble up, creating the thousands of tiny “fountains.

The Tibetan Dolphin BowlThe dolphin bowl effect occurs because when played, the walls of the bowl vibrate. You can feel this vibration when you play the bowl normally. When the water rocks up and down the sides of the bowl, you are changing the resonant frequency of the bowl, essentially causing it to vibrate at a different frequency, or pitch, giving off the “dolphin” sound.
