Cymatics
Sound energy is made visible in dynamic wave patterns by vibrating a shallow pan of water. Today physicists are providing evidence that particles of sound can carry tiny amounts of mass. Cymatics is a dynamic demonstration of this property, showing the energy from sound waves transferred into a l...

Ferrofluid
Frictionless ferrofluid becomes magnetized in the presence of a magnetic field. Developed as a liquid rocket fuel for NASA in 1963, ferrofluid is an oily black fluid full of suspended nano magnetic particles. The liquid itself assumes the shape of magnetic lines of force. It forms spiky peaks and...
