Sonic Horns Fun

When you're involved with sonic horns and the science of sonic cleaning, you can become so engrossed with, what is after all a fascinating subject, that you begin to see everyday objects in a different way.

Here are two examples ...

Art Exhibition - entitled "Underwater" you could not possibly have imagined a connection with sonic horns BUT there was! Read my artistic sonic horns post previously published on this blog.

Children's Play Area - a recent walk through one of Cumbria's city parks stopped me in my tracks. I had unwittingly entered a recently developed section with a variety of novel interactive displays, clearly designed to attract the attention of the younger generation. Amongst them were 2 metal horns set up several feet apart, offering an experiment in sound wave transmission.



What great fun! I know how I would have reacted if I had seen this as a boy!

Who knows, it might just inspire one or two children to delve further into the science of acoustics and become sonic horn experts in years to come! I live in hope :)
