Cymatics: A Study of Wave Phenomena & Vibration Hans Jenny
Publisher: Macromedia Press

This video gives an overview on the field of cymatics, which studies the effects of sound wave phenomena on physical matter. Those who have studied basic physics will recall that there are specific characteristic points on a wave–crests, troughs and nodes. Cymatics.A.Study.of.Wave.Phenomena.Vibration.pdf. This is basic “standing wave” phenomena. Of anecdotal interest: the link to Hans Jenny's work, a pioneer in the field of cymatics. Also, a single cross section is influenced laterally (the plate does not fly apart), so it can be tricky to calculate exactly what the pattern will be if the distance from the source of vibration is not uniform. The possibilities posed by this. Cymatics: A Study of Wave Phenomena & Vibration. In the 1700s Ernst Chladni studied numerous geometrical wave patterns formed in sand particles on metal plates created by vibrating the plates with a violin bow. 20th century researchers discovered how sound could cause geometrical wave patterns to be set up in fluids.
