Our next task was to find out which materials can conduct sound and which are best for this purpose.
Sound (Tibetan) bowls originally served as eating utensils. Their versatile vibroacoustic properties have contributed to the fact that these objects are now used in the field of music therapy in the broadest sense. They can be placed on various parts of the body to feel their vibrations, but they are most commonly used for relaxation and therapeutic concerts, which are often referred to as “bathing in sound” by listeners.
These instruments have an extremely subtle and mellow sound, which, despite appearances, is not so easy to produce from them. In addition to their musical aspects, they are also an indispensable tool for experiments and physical experiments. Water is one of the best carriers of sound. When we listen to music, it not only reaches our ears, but along with water molecules travel to the innermost recesses of our body. Did you know that the human body is made up of about 70% water! It is in the bowls that you can very spectacularly observe how sounds and music affect the behavior of water, and thus, ourselves. See for yourself !!!
