How sound is made visible 🤯Added:
So all we have is a metal plate and we sprinkle on some sand. [music] What you see here is completely formless. In other words, there's no pattern at [music] all.
Then we take a violin bow and we're going to play the plate with the violin bow.
>> [music] >> You see a beautiful star appears on the plate.
Now, >> [music] >> that pattern that forms is basically the sound made visible and it's kind of magic.
And now watch what [music] happens when we make this plate vibrate from an electronic piano.
>> [music] [music] >> Isn't that neat?
