In de video "Cymatics" van Nigel John Stanford worden cymatic technieken gebruikt om geluidsgolven om te zetten in zichtbare patronen op materialen zoals zand. Stanford, geboren in Nieuw-Zeeland, combineert muziek, wetenschap en technologie om complexe natuurkundige geluidsvisualisaties te creëren. Deze audiovisuele projecten spreken zowel muziekliefhebbers als een breed publiek aan, waarbij Stanford's fascinatie voor muziek en technologie vanaf zijn jeugd een centrale rol speelt.
In the Waveform podcast episode 225, Marques Brownlee discusses the Rabbit R1, an AI hardware device. It features a compact design with a screen and swiveling camera, designed for easy portability.
