Jelly wobble sound

Jul 3 2008

Scientists have captured the sound of wobbling jelly and plan to broadcast it at a bizarre event at University College London.

The architectural jelly banquet hosted by the university is part of the London Festival of Architecture. Competing jellies designed by world leading architects will go on display at the banquet.

The jelly recording was made in a sound-proof chamber by sound artist Douglas Murphy. A number of jellies were wobbled, and their oscillations measured so they could be turned into into sound waves.
