In the 18th century, Chladni developed the technique of drawing a violin bow across a metal plate of sand and observing the patterns that formed. In this title, Lauterwasser extends the idea to more complex and moving sounds in water, ranging from pure sine waves to music by Beethoven, Stockhausen and overtone chanting.
