The Super Sonic Sideshow

This show is currently only available online (because the handy bench on wheels has been set up on a semi-permanent basis in the Shed of Science for all of our online shows).

The Super Sonic Sideshow investigates the link between vibration and sound, the properties of sound waves and how we visualise sound.  Along the way we explore how sounds can be made by different devices including springs, a didgeridoo, a Theremin and a jet engine.

We also look at the effects of sound; sending a shcokwave into the audience, making a sonic boom and also smashing a wine glass with high intensity sound!
