Platonic Solids
Exploration of the differences in sound spatialisation among Platonic solids: in geometry, a Platonic solid is a convex, regular polyhedron in three-dimensional Euclidean space. The sound that enters these different structures takes shape and inherits their geometric properties.
It is therefore of particular interest to observe the physical and sonic phenomena within these remarkable polyhedra. More than the sound quality itself, the focus here is on how the different sound waves autonomously position themselves, in an entirely non-uniform manner, within the structure.
How does a dodecahedron sound?
How does an octahedron sound?
How does an icosahedron sound?
How does a tetrahedron sound?
How does a cube sound?
This is the first collection of the pure investigation into remarkable polyhedra. Following the Platonic solids are the Archimedean solids, the Catalan solids, and eventually leading to fractals, contemporary harmonies, and future explorations.
