What is up with Noises? (The Science and Mathematics of Sound, Frequency, and Pitch)

Accuracy not guaranteed. Get Audacity and play! http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

Correction: it is the "Basilar" membrane, which is what I say, but somehow between recording the script and actually drawing the stuff I got confused and thought I just pronounced my Vs poorly. Always sad to have such a simple and glaring error in something I put hundreds of hours of work into, but a "Vasilar" membrane can be the kind that a Vi draws to explain Viola Vibrations, I guess! Making up new words is just so prolightfully awstastic.

Props to my Bro for excellent and creative swing pushing, and to my Mamma for filming it.

Extra special thanks to my generous donators, without whom I would not have been able to create this video. Because of your support, I have the equipment, time, and take-out Thai food necessary for doing stuff like this.

As a stupid person i can't tell you how reassuring it is to know that there are people this clever in the world.

131 dislikes are the one's who got frustrated for not understanding her

10,844 likes are for the people who didn't get it as well but loved how they didn't or watched the full 12:48 video in fascination.

Aw, you broke a string for us. I wouldn't have done that with my violin to prove a point.

Gotta love all the smart people that make the world go round. I truly wish to join them in the future lol

Actually, these mathematics more or less apply to things outside of sound alone. Light and electricity also follow the same patterns. The arguments you make for how we hear this or that note apply for how we see this or that color. The difference is between photons and phonons. I think.

That was amazing.

I should have known better than to watch this while taking a break from homework. Now I can't concentrate at all
