    I love this. I’m going to repost it on my blog if you don’t mind (and link back to you of course).

    Beautiful. Though, my dog went insane during the second half of the video :D

    Chladni patterns they’re called – after this guy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernst_Chladni

    well that’s normal. Higher sound, it goes toward ultra sounds, and animals like dogs are affected.

    Wow, got to try a little experiment later.

    I absolutely love the hidden geometry of things. Like when seven egg reds form an exagon with a center. Ever thought about that?
