Cymatics: the study of wave phenomena. It is typically associated with the physical patterns produced through the interaction of sound waves in a medium.
Cool! While researching the golden ration today at http://ourworld.compuserve.com, I came across a fascinating study done by Margaret Watts-Hughes in the 19th century where she created complex patterns out of sand by means of sound vibration. The sand particles, placed on a sheet of metal, "arranged themselves into geometric shapes, flower patters (such as pansies, primroses, geraniums, and roses), or the shape of a fern or a tree. The higher the pitch, the more complex the patterns produced; a powerful sustained note produced an imprint of a head of wheat." Crazy!!
So what we might learn from this is that"everything we see is a divine word-or vibration-that has solidified and become manifest, the vibrations originating in the inner, more ethereal realms. All of nature is essentially rhythmic vibration. Everything from subatomic particles to the most intricate life forms, from planets to galaxies, comprises resonating fields of pulsating energy in constant interaction."
"...it is possible that crystals, plants, and human beings may be, in some way, music that has taken on visible form."~Cathie Guzzetta.
The Navajo shamans would utter words onto sand and create patterns, and Hindu mandalas are said to be expressions of the vibration of God. Apparently this is very much what the string theory is about. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_theory
This video shows some great visuals and claims that any stress or bad thoughts we have will manifest and make us physically sick.
