Cymatics is the science of sound made visible and is based on the physics principle that when sound encounters a membrane, such as the surface of water or the membranes that surround our cells, a pattern of energy is automatically imprinted on the membrane. The pattern consists of antinodes–regions of high pressure–and nodes–regions of low pressure. In this process the periodic vibrations in the sound are transformed to become periodic ripples on the membrane’s surface, creating beautiful (though often invisible) geometric patterns that are analogs, or models, of the sound. Cymatics is therefore a natural process that is continually occurring inside our bodies, on the surface of everyday objects, and even at astronomical scales. See for example the giant hexagon on Saturn’s north pole in the astrophysics section of this site. And for more information on cymatics at the cellular level please refer to our microscopic cymatics section. – https://cymascope.com/cymatics-intro/
