- SOUND BECOMES VISIBLE -
An audio-visual experience:
what you see - is what you hear

The technique of making sound visible.
When water is set into resonance by single vibrations, different frequencies and/or music,
the surface of the water starts moving into ripples, like when you drop a stone into water.
When the ripples of water reach the edges of the vessel, where the water is placed in, they will return to the centre of the vessel again and by that create interferention patterns.
These patterns one can make visible with lighting up the surface of the water, and this results in the 'mandala' patterns of the sound resonance within the water.
- What you see, is what you hear. -
The film and the photos from Danny Becher are a registration of the vibrational patterns of his own music. We see these geometrical patterns from above the water surface. The patterns become visible by the reflection of light onto the water.

This audio-visual experience has a double impact onto our awareness,
since we not only hear the sound, but we can see it in real-time. -
This impact on our senses creates a harmonising and balancing effect
and broadens our understanding of the magic and the power of sound.
