The simple process of vibrating a dish of liquid can make for some pretty interesting results - mixing in a bit of cornstarch can be downright freaky. additional infos here: http://blog.makezine.c...

That looks very much like Quantum Fluctuation when you get into the Planck Scale.
Awesome.

Matter is an electromagnetic field that resonates with different frequencies and it crystalizes itself into the Fractal Lattice that is based on phi ratio.

So the sound produces a wave which in turn creates vibrations that cause the corn starch solution to move?

When you try this on a much larger scale, and use music with a thumpin base, every now and then a significant fraction of your corn starch/water solution ends up all over the room. Have you ever tried to sweep up a non-Newtonian fluid?!? When you stop, it spreads out all over. When you apply pressure to gather it up, it turns hard!
