Watch As Symmetrical Geometrical Patterns Form With The Flick Of A Violin Bow
What starts as a pile of scattered grains turns into art thanks to sound wave vibrations.
This is absolutely amazing: A violin bow creates beautiful geometric images from thin air. pic.twitter.com/U3KRnG8XnQ

When a square plate resonates you can see the pattern of the standing wave formed by adding sand or salt. The particles come to rest on those parts of the plate that are not moving. These parts are called nodes and the patterns are called Chladni patterns https://t.co/LAx8YuHXkw pic.twitter.com/Io9Lco7tyM
