The experiment Explore cymatics using fine powders, creating small clouds and eruptions. The object A small dish of black pigment is placed directly on a cut back speaker cone. The device is placed under a glass cloche to contain the dust particulate. As the vibrations get larger the pigment begins to billow making larger clouds inside the jars. After the sound the specimen jar looks like a speaker valve. Perhaps there area number of objects with different coloured pigments.... Sound Using the process voice pitch shifted, small eruptions can be made. Using bass oscillator notes clouds and bills can be made. (Perhaps a performance element for Sonya, or a crescendo for trio performance). Audience experience Unmediated... Audience need to be able to see the jars - perhaps spread out across the tables...
