I don't know that I would have the patience to set something like this up but this is pretty damn cool.

Obviously we are seeing a strobe-like stop action but it still looks pretty cool.

Bown? Yep, shutter effect in action.

We used to do similar experiments in our A level physics class using a strobe light and a ticker tape machine actuating on a piece of rubber pipe.
In fact, looking back, we used to use ticker tape machines for all sorts of things in those classes!

Yah, it's just the same 'interference-phenomenon' that brings us the physics-impossible (..well, *practically-speaking*..) 'laser-ribbons'..

..but, like you said, still Cool / fun vid-phenom.. I've always been a fan of the 'sonic-sculptures' with iron-powder, etc.. Don't remember where someone posted about that, but it was cool.. Oh, and those 'ferro-fluid' sculptures.. Rad-ass.. I *still* wanna get with one of those ferro-artists, and shoot some lumia off it..

Bown?

Yeah, Bown is when your mind is blown and you post about it.......... at 6am (before going to bed).


This would be a cool effect for Halloween, with a strobe flashing at said frequency.
