RESONANCE

Photographer
Simone Arrigoni, Italy
What if we could see sound? We would be immersed in geometric shapes drawn by acoustic waves in space. Thanks to Cymatics, it is possible to go beyond the limits of our senses, visualizing the patterns produced by sounds that propagate in a fluid.
The Resonance photographic project is a tribute to the secret beauty of Nature by showing the drawings created on water by natural objects’ sounds (both Earthly and astronomic), which draw in front of the camera’s lens the invisible symphony of reality.
Photos here presented: Magma, Stalagmite, Geyser, Fire, Snowstorm, Torrent, Beluga, Blu whale
