Transcript

So all we have is a metal plate and we sprinkle on some sand. What you see here [music] is completely formless. In other words, there's no pattern at all. Then we take a violin [music] bow and we're going to play the plate with the violin bow. >> [music] >> You see a beautiful star appears on [music] the plate. Now, that pattern that forms is basically the sound [music] made visible and it's kind of magic. And now watch what happens [music] when we make this plate vibrate from an electronic [music] piano. >> [music] >> And for most frequencies it doesn't really do much, but when it hits a frequency that resonates with the plate, [music] it forms a really nice pure shape. Then we found out what those tones were and those are the tones we used to drive [music] the plate in the video. >> [music]
