Crystal lattices themselves do not directly produce visible patterns, but the vibrational modes of crystals can be visualized using techniques like Bragg diffraction or other scattering methods. These techniques can reveal the internal symmetry and harmonic frequencies of the crystal lattice by showing how waves interact with the crystal's structure.
Here’s a video showing the creation of a crystal lattice on the surface of vodka.

This line from the SVP wiki page on cymatics stands out to me… “We have therefore deduced that sound is the formative power of shape and form in space.”
That’s right, without vibrations our physical reality would be absent of form. Everything down to color, taste, smell, brightness, temperature are all derived from vibrational waves. We are but music

Easily visualize opposing wave oscillations during the formation of cymatic patterns. A frame from each composite images (left-hand panels), and images of alternating phases (center and right-hand panels).

Cymatics occur when a balance is between order and chaos is achieved. Syntropic vibrations generate self organizing node points. Entropic vibrations create enough chaos to make matter dance, right into the trap of existence.
Sun Sonification: turning the sun’s harmonic frequencies into sound. Check the link to hear a distinct ohmmmmmmm 🧘
The accompanying image is sonified sun as visualized through a Cymascope. Inventor John Stuart Reid has this to say about it:
“Here is the Sun Dragon, crouched and ready to imbue life from this single unit of vibration. This frequency matches the frequency of NASA's "sonification" of the the Sun and is the 5th harmonic of B-flat"

Coming home with me, just in time for the playoffs 🏀
We've come a long way from sprinkling powder on Chladni plates. The Cymascope opens a new frontier.
This slideshow examines the visual representations of certain meaningful harmonics: love frequency, 20x transposed Earth Day frequency, Sun frequency, and more. Very insightful!

After Chladni, the most notable figure to study cymatics was English scientist, Michael Faraday (yes, Faraday Cage Faraday). In fact, before Hans Jenny coined the term "cymatics", it was commonly referred to as Faraday Wave phenomena. I'll be writing some longer form pieces about Faraday's explorations soon, but for now, here's a quick snap I took of Michael Faraday's portrait at the Faraday Museum in London!

Robert Hooke, an English polymath, was the first to discover and study cymatics in 1671. He’s credited for a variety of discoveries and inventions in physics, astronomy, geology, meteorology, and architecture. He was one of the first scientists to investigate living things at microscopic scale, using a compound microscope he designed himself, no less!
Cymatics were just a blip in Hooke’s prestigious career, and it wasn’t until over 100 years later, in 1780, when experiments were continued by German physicist and musician Ernst Chladni. The Chladni plate is still used in cymatics explorations to this day. More on him and his discoveries in future posts ⚛️

The concept of underlying vibrational patterns in the natural world dates back centuries. In his 1632 volume, "Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems," Galileo Galilei observed the frequency phenomenon while scraping a brass plate with a chisel. He noted a high whistling sound and saw parallel streaks of brass particles that assembled in unison with the sound.

Were ancient structures designed using cymatics? Many designs correlate to known patterns, but where’s the tech used by the builders?? Lost to history… for now.
One thing is for sure, cymatics are being explored for modern design applications. Here’s a paper I came across.
Title: Microscale Assembly Directed by Liquid-Based Template
Abstract: “A liquid surface established by standing waves is used as a dynamically reconfigurable template to assemble microscale materials into ordered, symmetric structures in a scalable and parallel manner.”
So, yes, cymatics are being used on a microscale level to assemble structures. Now how do we scale that up to create temples and other full scale structures? What tools were used by the ancient cultures designing iconic structures like Angkor Wat?

Molecular Jackhammers ⚛️ 🔨
Just beyond the visible light spectrum (red light) is the frequency range of 380-430 THz. This is called the near-infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. It’s a special frequency as it penetrates deeply into tissues with minimal absorption by water and hemoglobin. However, when paired with a small dye molecule used for medical imaging, it can induce vibrational responses that selectively destroy cancer cells with reported efficacy as high as 99%.
The treatment is called near-infrared photoimmunotherapy (NIR-PIT), also referred to as molecular jackhammers, and it’s a great example of how we can use targeted frequencies for healing. It’s still in clinical trials, but holds great promise for tumor reduction.

Jokes aside, maybe “end of the world” means end of an era? Maybe the singularity is closer than we’d predicted 😱🤖

Zora should have been a blockchain viewer and then it could have been called Zora the Explorer.
This video further explores my post from two days ago. Using speakers and bubbles to visualize frequencies. Bassforge discusses the ability to create a taurus and a Klein Bottle.

By understanding how sound waves interact with physical structures, architects and engineers can design buildings and spaces that optimize sound quality and minimize unwanted vibrations.
In therapy, cymatics has been explored for its potential to influence the body's energy fields and promote healing.
Should we be designing our living spaces to expose the body to specific healing vibrational frequencies? We could potentially harmonize and balance our body's energy, leading to improved health and well-being.
