Understanding the properties of water has allowed us to create many useful technologies such as paint sprays, farming machinery and printers. We are able to use the reliable nature of droplets to our advantage and this can lead to some surprising behaviour.
Dr Alfonso Castrejon-Pita’s research will show you how it is possible to control water with no more than your voice. Using a combination of light and sound, come along and drop a beat to stop water mid-drip.
