What visitors will learn

Most speakers are delicate and expensive precision instruments, but this one is built for exploration. Visitor can test their ideas about what high‑speed vibrations do, without fear of breaking anything.

• From simple to complex: Start with basic observation, then explore the science of vibration in fun, unexpected ways.
• Sensory discovery: See, hear, and feel how vibrations engage all your senses.
• Alternate configurations: In more complicated scenario's you can see what drinking straws, ping pong balls, or Oobleck does in response to the vibrations.

How it works

The interactive touchscreen allows users to explore all aspects of sound:

• Start the experience. Press the touchscreen to begin.
• Choose your waveform. Mode selector buttons at the top let you pick:
• Sine wave for smooth, pure tone like a tuning fork.
• Square wave for more mechanical sounding.
• Sawtooth wave for harsh, buzzing sound.
• See the sound. On‑screen waveforms match the actual motion of the speaker cone, helping you visualize what’s happening.
• Change the frequency. Use the green sliders on either side of the screen to adjust the speed of vibration.
• Feel the difference. Keep your hand on the left speaker and your eyes on the right one to sense how changes affect both touch and sight.

Durability

Built to withstand curious hands and plenty of experiments:

• Commercial‑grade touchscreen designed for public spaces.
• Rugged construction from plywood and quarter‑inch plastic.
• Minimal exposed components—there’s not much to break.
