Chladni Patterns

The technique of showing the lines of nodes on vibrating metal plates by strewing sand on them was developed by the German physicist Ernst E. F. Chladni. The first mention of the technique is in his book Entdeckungen ueber die Theorie des Klanges, published in 1787. Until the twentieth century the standard method of setting the plates into oscillation was drawing the rosined hairs of a violin bow over the edge of the plate, which was normally clamped at its geometrical center. Today we place a loudspeaker above or below the plate, and adjust the driving frequency until the plate goes into resonance, and the sand on the surface moves toward the nodes.

Fascinating images are formed through the vibrations of sound on a plate covered with sand. There are many variations and experiments, and please check out some of the basic web pages listed at Google to follow up on this area. (Below)

The essential core understanding to arrive at here, is that when something goes into RESONANCE, energy is created. the vibration of this Resonance moves sand, etc. into clear and definitive form. It is a PROOF that Sound exerts influence over matter.

The Process is simple: Tone resonates on a plate of brass, or whatever is being used, and when the plate reaches a point of RESONANCE with the note being produced, forms are created. What is more, by calculating the MASS of the plate over the nature of the metal, we can PREDICT when it will come into resonance. Further, we can also determine according to the expanding ratio principle of music, the mass and size of another plate that will resonate with a different frequency.

Thus this is also a PROOF that mathematics can be shown to predict form. This is a basic principle of Number Harmonics and indeed all forms of Healing Music
