What is acoustic levitation?
Two facing sound waves can form standing waves. The standing waves can hold items in the air.
What is acoustic physicalization?
Sound waves generated from two facing directional speakers form standing waves. The standing waves are used as components for things. Standing waves in speaker arrays are the building blocks of acoustic physicalization. Making things from sound waves rather than matter.
What are standing waves?
Standing waves are formed from the interaction of sound waves. Standing waves are made of nodes and antinodes.
What are sound objects?
Objects made of sound. These objects are generated through acoustic physicalization. Many things can be generated with acoustic physicalization including environments, structures & tools.
