    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!

ID:	44366 ..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..

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