Sonic Magic: The Wonder and Science of Sound reveals the historic force, promise, and potential of sound – and a strange phenomenon called cymatics that has created a new scientific mystery.

  • " If you want to understand the universe...think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration " -- Nikola Tesla
  • I feel validated for every time I turned the radio down to see better while driving.

    I have worked in audio my entire life and this documentary is invigorating. Most of my career has been in communications/marketing/entertainment, but I was hired by a research lab a year ago and it is inspiring to get to dive deeper into these technologies.
  • It's funny how this physicist musician combines his two passions. I'm a musician and a trucker and I've discovered that somewhere around a third of the way inside an empty trailer is the most acoustically perfect spot. Lol.
  • I have adhd and use sound to actually bring my senses into order to process. Loud white noise will make food taste better to me since my focus is only on the white noise instead of every little thing in the world pulling me away. This video is very interesting.
  • @0ptimal
    The shaping and holding of matter with sound waves is neato.
  • Sound literally is healing. Besides music being the most obvious and common form of this, sometimes when I feel.sick or in pain, I do a low hum like "ommmmmm" in a very low note and frequency, and the vibrations from my chest actually make my entire body feel so much better.

    ...WE create the World around us by our vibrations, our words thoughts and actions. May God Bless you this day and for always.

    The blind guy is just amazing. What a beautiful human being! And parents that did not "cushion" his life - they allowed him to take some hits. WOW
  • I love the no noise landscapers. Ive always apposed leaf blowers. And lawn mowers and weed wackers. Serious noise pollution most aren't aware of. Happy people are waking up to the subtleties. And the clicking blimd guy isnt the first. There is a young black man who did this with extreme accuracy. He could identify objects from clicking just like this guy.

    Reminds me of God speaking the universe into existence. What a beautiful voice.

    It's crazy how those are the same patters but with colors , you see when you take psycedelics and listen to music with you're eyes closed. You could actually see the music.
  • I had a "trip" in the late 1960's in which I saw sound and heard sight ~~ It was amazing! Love the Sonic Magic!
  • @23hughmann
    I’m especially intrigued with levitating objects with sound, using sound in bloodless surgery, was also blown away with the so-called “Cymascope”(?) mentioned around 3:09
  • Absolutely fascinating. Especially impressed by the mobile panels which converted the theatre stage into a music venue.
  • Absolutely love documentaries like this one. They take you away from the humdrum and allow you some insight into what other people are doing and going through. Nice one Spark.
  • @JonnoPlays
    I would love to see a follow up on this. Fascinating topic!
