The source of a sound creates vibrations that travel as
waves
of pressure through particles in air, liquids, or solids.
So, the first problem to solve is how to convert those sound waves, wherever they’re coming from, into
waves
in the fluid.
Those convert the large movements of the eardrum into pressure
waves
in the fluid of the cochlea.

Now as you may know, sound travels in waves, so if you have a speaker, a speaker actually does nothing else than taking the audio signal, transform it into a vibration, which is then transported through the air, is captured by our ear, and transformed into an audio signal again.
Now I was thinking, how can I make those sound
waves
visible?
Those three projects, they're based on very simple scientific phenomena, such as magnetism, the sound waves, or over here, the physical properties of a substance, and what I'm trying to do is I'm trying to use these phenomena and show them in a poetic and unseen way, and therefore invite the viewer to pause for a moment and think about all the beauty that is constantly surrounding us.
And to quote a fellow security researcher, Haroon Meer, one country only has to make a small wave, but those small
waves
together become a tide, and the tide will lift all the boats up at the same time, and the tide we will build with secure, free, open-source systems, will become the tide that will lift all of us up and above the surveillance state.

waves
from the fundamental era, and here's how they found it.
Those
waves
have long since faded.
Those gravitational
waves
in the structure of space are totally invisible for all practical purposes.
But early on, when the universe was making that last afterglow, the gravitational
waves
put little twists in the structure of the light that we see.
So there's that big screen, and there's no planets, because unfortunately it doesn't actually work very well, because the light
waves
of the light and
waves
diffracts around that screen the same way it did in the telescope.
Their extreme sensitivity makes them candidates to be used to detect gravitational
waves
in future space-based detectors.
Continuous sound
waves
are digitized by taking "snapshots" of their amplitudes every few milliseconds.
We can understand the change in the brain
waves
that occur during sleep.
The ball would smash right into and through them, and the collisions with these air molecules would knock away the nitrogen, carbon and hydrogen from the ball, fragmenting it off into tiny particles, and also triggering
waves
of thermonuclear fusion in the air around it.
She waves, and she smiles.
This guy can make himself look like a rock, and, looking at his environment, can actually slide across the bottom, using the

and the shadows so he can't be seen.
At the beginning of the week, we got the exciting information that the theory of inflation, which predicts a big, infinite, messy, arbitrary, pointless reality, it's like a big frothing champagne coming out of a bottle endlessly, a vast universe, mostly a wasteland with little pockets of charm and order and peace, this has been confirmed, this inflationary scenario, by the observations made by radio telescopes in Antarctica that looked at the signature of the gravitational
waves
from just before the Big Bang.
There's no running water, no electricity there, and to reach the village, you have to walk for hours or take your chances in a pickup truck like I did skirting the
waves
of the Atlantic.
Second alternative: build a big wall, heavy infrastructure to resist the energy of the
waves.
Those pressure
waves
hit objects and they create small vibrations in them, which is how we hear and how we record sound.
Can we actually invert this process and recover sound from video by analyzing the tiny vibrations that sound
waves
create in objects, and essentially convert those back into the sounds that produced them.
So here's an empty bag of chips that was lying on a table, and we're going to turn that bag of chips into a microphone by filming it with a video camera and analyzing the tiny motions that sound
waves
create in it.
