I recently heard Jerome Rex speak on the topic ‘Sound Creates’. One of the cool things about the talk was the video clip that he showed beforehand which showed how different frequencies affected the surrounding area.  It is known as a Chladni Plate experiment and it’s really, really cool (see video clip below).

What they do is put a plate with sand granules on top of a speaker through which they play different high frequencies. As they increase or change the frequencies, different pictures start forming in the sand, hence Jerome’s topic – Sound Creates.

While this may be fascinating, it’s not really anything new.  “And God said let there be light, and there was light” (Genesis 1:3).  And all throughout the account of creation, God spoke and it happened – Sound Creates.

Consider the music that you choose to listen to. Think about how it affects your mood or the vibe around you. Do yourself a favour the next time you get to go to a restaurant and pay attention to the type of music that subtly plays in the background. A friend of mine used to own a restaurant and said when business was slow and the restaurant was empty, they would put on nice soft music to help patrons relax and stay longer. If however they were busy, they would put on fast paced music to get patrons out and new ones in – Sound Creates.

So you may not be able to bring forth sound on the same level as God did, or evoke the same emotions that skilled musicians do… but what are the sounds that are coming from your mouth? The next time you wish to say something about anything to somebody, consider this:
