The classic physics experiment involving sound, a tube of propane and fire. Created for Flash Forward 2006, but useful in any case where you are not allowed to have fire. I push through the tube 449 Hz then higher frequencies, then some jazz and then some rock. This is real life sound visualization.

    I have since learned it is very unwise to use PVC. Use Steel pipe with rubber Fast Pipe ends, cut a hole in one for the speaker. Do not use Steel ends, that is not a Ruben's Tube it is a pipe bomb. Go through the full comments you will find more on construction. Happy building and remember, you have to be comfortable with fire and explosives to do this experiment, you can burn yourself and your property doing this and end up disfigured, poor and/or dead, enlightened, but dead.
