Sometimes its good to share really cool stuff for no reason

Fascinating and beautiful at the same time. 24fps capture of what low frequency sound waves do to liquid

Here’s a video that will blow your mind, and give you a visual way to understand how audio affects the things around you – and inside of you.
The video, via brusspup, uses a clever trick to let you see how audio waves move a stream of water. When you see it, it looks like it’s a special effect, rather than just capturing what’s happening around you constantly.
Here what they have to say about the video:
This is a really fun project and when you first see the results, chances are your jaw will drop. The main thing to keep in mind for this project is that you need a camera that shoots 24 fps.
The effect that you are seeing can’t be seen with the naked eye. The effect only works through the camera.
In essence, if you use a camera that can shoot 24 frames per second, and you play a 24 cycle per second sine wave, you can see the effects that the sine wave has on water or other things around you.
It would be interesting to see a creative application of this technique – and it seems well suited to electronic music.
