These are two slow-motion videos of a cymbal’s vibration of the pins in a pin art toy after it’s been struck. Man, pin art toys used to be EVERYWHERE in the 90’s. But mostly at Spencer’s. People wouldn’t hesitate to pick one up off the shelf and push their face

Canadian children’s book author and illustrator Lulu Lotus recently set the Guinness World Record for loudest nose whistle, with an impressive 44.1dB snoot hooter. That’s about as loud as a bird’s call. In her own words while I go blow my nose (technically pick) so it stops unintentionally whistling when

This is a video of science lover James Orgill from Youtube channel The Action Lab popping balloons in the loudest and quietest rooms at 3M’s Innovation Center. The loudest room is a reverberation chamber (is that what Darth Vader hung out in?) that reflects maximum sound waves, while the quietest

This is a video from the appropriately named Instrument Maniac performing the same 7-note lick on an impressive 91 different instruments, including the train whistle, ocarina, and conch shell. That is a lot of different instruments! For reference, I only play one instrument — the heartstrings. Still, if you’re the

Presumably inspired by socially distanced birthday parties, Blower is a $2 iPhone app that can blow out a candle by holding the speaker up to the candle. What a time to be alive and celebrating another trip around the sun! The app works by generating pressure waves from the phone’s
