The two rare films originally made by Hans Jenny around 1970 are now available together on a single DVD called Cymatics Soundscapes: Bringing Matter to Life with Sound.
The study of wave phenomena and vibration was pioneered by the Swiss physician and Renaissance man Hans Jenny. Inspired by Rudolf Steiner, Dr. Jenny's penetrating observations of distinct types of patterns in nature led to these dramatic experiments animating inert substances with audible sound.
The stunning array of images seen in these two films are actual physical phenomena evolving before your eyes as audible sound excites various liquids, powders, pastes and iron filings into processes which mimic atomic, geologic, biological, solar and even galactic shapes and movements. Amazing in this day and age, absolutely no computer-generated images appear in these films.
Caution: Viewing this remarkable scientific artistry can profoundly alter the way you view your world!
"Dr. Jenny's cymatic images are truly awe-inspiring, not only for their visual beauty in portraying the inherent responsiveness of matter to sound (vibration) but because they inspire a deep recognition that we are part of this complex and intricate vibrational matrix, suggesting that the subtle vibrations of our very thoughts and feelings may have great effect on what will manifest in the physical world." Jeff Volk, series producer

"The two rare films originally made by Hans Jenny around 1970 are now available together on this single DVD. The study of wave phenomena and vibration was pioneered by the Swiss Physician and Renaissance Man, Hans Jenny. Part I of this two-part series highlights Dr. Jenny's pioneering experiments using audible sound frequencies to excite inert powders, pastes, and liquids, into life-like flowing forms. The stunning array of images reflects a variety of forms found throughout nature, while viewing them in motion elicits an intuitive understanding of the invisible forces which underlie natural processes, from the movements of amoebae to the formation of galaxies. Part II details a variety of patterns created by vibrating lycopodium powder. Audible frequencies give rise to circulatory processes which closely resemble sunspots and solar flares. Other frequencies generate flowing patterns analogous to the formation and rotation of spiral galaxies. Unusual three-dimensional forms arise that seem to defy gravity and laws of motion, but all adhere strictly to the dynamics of the generating tone. The closing sequence features liquid kaolin paste as it solidifies under the effect of vibration, creating intricate geomorphic patterns.". Seller Inventory # 019816

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Cymatics is the study of sound-wave phenomena and this astonishing book vividly depicts the significance of audible sound throughout our world. It presents, primarily through beautiful photographs, the effects of sound vibrations to excite powders, pastes and liquids into life-like, flowing forms. The resultant patterns can be found throughout nature, art and architecture.This new expanded edition includes the two volumes originally published in 1967 and 1974, plus a new foreword by New York Times best-selling author, Ted Gioia, who has written extensively about the impact of music upon culture throughout history. An assortment of commentaries by leading researchers, artists, and scientists, reveal how Jennys body of work has profoundly influenced a wide range of disciplines in the arts and sciences, particularly over the past twenty years.Dr Jennys images are awe-inspiring because of their visual beauty and because they demonstrate a fundamental principle of creation; resonance: the inherent responsiveness of matter to vibration. Employing the phenomenological approach of Goethe and Rudolf Steiner, Jennys keen observations and penetrating insights offer a uniquely comprehensive understanding of our world. The book is essential reading for students of sacred geometry, mandalas, metaphysics, sound healing and even crop circles. A new expanded edition of Dr Hans Jenny's pioneering study of wave phenomena, featuring over 360 stunning images, and new commentaries which reveal the influence of Jenny's work in recent years.
