Sound,made visible.

A journey from a single vibration
to a world of resonance.

A disturbance.

A force. A displacement. A return.

Motion stays.Energy travels.

The medium oscillates.
The wave moves on.

Where waves meet.

In phase, they reinforce.
Out of phase, they cancel.

Matter gathers where motion rests.

One note.Many voices.

A fundamental, and the frequencies within it.

A trace ofwhat was.

Vibration becomes a signal.
A signal becomes memory.

Into the air.Again.

What was held is set in motion.

Every silence holds a beginning.

The journey

One vibration. Eight states.

About this experience

RESONANCE is an artistic study of acoustic motion. Visual time and displacement are adjusted so you can see the relationships. The plate patterns are inspired by nodal modes; they are not a calibration of a specific material.

All sound is synthesized in your browser. Capture holds the current tone for three seconds, without a microphone. The frequency control sets the audible fundamental; the visual motion is slowed.
