Hans Jenny: Cymatics: Bringing Matter to life with Sound
I stumbled up these videos a few years ago in a search for acoustical video. Amazing is what I thought. We as people who listen to sound never venture too far away from our ears. But when Hans Jenny thought of sound he wanted to see what it looked like. This is an old video from his work that produced the book "Cymantics: Bringing matter to life with sound".
From Wikipedia:
Hans Jenny (1904-1972) was a physician and natural scientist who is considered the father of cymatics, the study of wave phenomena.
