About this clip

thumbnail

We used a high-speed digital video camera to record this video. We set up in a building with a high ceiling and a balcony in order to tape from the balcony and get the greatest view area of the motion. We placed the slinky on white paper to show the contrast better. A person moving the slinky at the end produced the waves.
