Watch Music Make Paint Dance Like You’ve Never Seen Before


Music is an experience, they say. A great song can serve as a time machine to send you to a particular moment, a specific feeling, a certain memory. You might hear music but you can also see it, feel it and touch it. Touch it? Well, yeah, if you’re filling a speaker with paint to make music dance in breathtaking slow motion.

The Slow Mo Guys did just that. They poured different colours of paint into a speaker and turned up the volume to see the reactions at 2500 frames per second. The thumping paint looks like colourful Enokitake mushrooms from afar and vibrating alien cells up close. Gnarly. [Slow Mo Guys]
