I second that! It’s rare to find funny, well researched and formulated science videos on RUclips. The only content by Ben that tops this are the field recording adventures.
Your ability to move between music and science subjects so deftly, while being so informative and entertaining, makes your channel one of my absolute favorites on RUclips.
it is an actual crime that the algorithm would choose not to promote such excellently made and well researched content such as this. please keep making these kinds of videos, benn, i love watching them.
These are my favorite videos you do! Love it! I’m such an audio nerd and this is HUGE stuff! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and research with the world! I understood most of the first part of the video, but phonons are new to me so glad they discovered it (i had a feeling something like that existed for sound).
Awesome video, Ben! Besides making science videos interesting to watch you are sheding a light on aspects of audio and sound i wish more people knew. Good stuff, keep it up! And since yt algorithm hates this videos from your channel I might as well share a link with my friends and commit on this type of videos more
Have you heard the theory that the Grand Gallery in the Giza pyramid is a big Helmholz resonator and the granite stones in the central chamber are basically harmonic tuning forks that vibrate? And the pyramid itself was a power plant. The Giza Powerplant by Christopher Dunn is a book with this theory in much greater detail.
I was enjoying my coffee and your new video before heading for work and I didn't expect to hear quantum supremacy and phonons this early (I'm a quantum engineer!). As much as I like your more music focus related content, I think whenever you tackle a more scientific subject it is always well documented and fun (which is not always easy to do). I believe this irreconcilable duality of your channel is what make it special. If you receive your 3-qubits quantum computer, I hope you'll make a video about it !
I love the science content, I love how you don’t just discuss other peoples work but you also experiment yourself and get as manually involved as you can.
Im assisting on a project in my uni where a fellow student is trying to design a system in which energy is harvested from mechanical force using piezo pressure plates. As you mentioned the energy harvested from sound comes in much smaller quantities, but still is a very interesting topic for discussion and maybe in the future systems could be implemented in traffic junctions, where energy is harvested both from the road on which cars drive and also the sound that they produce, though electric vehicles will probably make this application obsolete before it was even implemented properly :D
At speed, most noise from cars comes from tires rather than engines, so might not be that irrelevant to EVs after all? Though slowing cars would probably save more energy than you could recover anyway.
@@Kebin-Blebin well that's where the pressure plates come in, as cars while braking produce a lot of energy which can be harvested from the road surface
Thank you, prof. I greatly appreciate the work that went into this one. I adore this category of subject matter. Stay healthy and thanks again for all the reminders to keep striving for growth.
benn, you've quickly become my fave youtuber. these vids are thoroughly interesting. thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you have a nice day.
Piezoelectric devices, among other sources, turned sounds like thunder into electric current and were used to grow crops better. Our ancestors employed these devices in Agriculture. Its called electroculture. It entails copper wire wrapped around a long stick stuck in the ground. the copper is coiled to the top and beyond the sticks's length. Then you place quartz in the coiled top because quarts is like a piezzo. Basically this device gathers electricity from the atmospheric conditions and creates a current going into the soil. This is without the quartz. With the quartz added, it gathers more electricity from wind and noise because it's piezoelectric. This increases the current when compared to not using quartz. Look into electroculture. The issue is that most vids don't seem to be aware of the quartz and the piezoelectric benefits, although our ancestors did.
A while ago I applied for a PhD position which was about using these concepts to make analog voice recognition chips. Imagine a analog resonator which is exactly tuned to only resonate when it is excited by a certain phrase (such as OK Google or Hey Siri, etc). This would allow the chip to use zero energy in passive mode, and only turn on the rest of the voice recognition chip after it's been activated.
no you don't understand these videos *are* my favorites that you release! it's always so interesting but also always at least tangentially related to sound and audio it's very cool and good
I'm not a music nut, never really have been, but i really enjoy these science type videos. I originally found your channel because of your "How the world sound to animals" video and really enjoyed it.
As someone who subscriped *for* the sound-related science content (and then branched off into finding all your other stuff fascinating too), please do keep it up! This side of physics is criminally underrepresented in general science knowlege, and you present it in a fantastic way
I'm subscribed to a great deal of science channels, but this one is the best. I know it's mainly music, but every one of your science videos makes me feel like a little kid discovering weird experiments that seem like magic. I'm really glad you enjoy making these types of videos because they're so genuinely interesting and one of a kind.
It's a shame these science-y videos don't do so well because they are my favorite and are probably the reason my I subscribed to this channel in the first place
Man, I love your scientific approach to things. I'm pretty curious too, every single problem or obstacle must be solved, but I typically go to ask google or community and in most cases I find that somebody did it before, so answer exists. But you just go to do the whole research and work by yourself, also on things that others doesn't see like important to them, so they doesn"t even start thinking about to move anywhere forward. So thank you for your obsession, exploration and sharing all of that! you spent some time on! :)
No silence, no peace! I've long-subscribed for just these sort of videos. I'm less motivated by the premise of the title than by my quest for elusive silence. As I awoke to omnipresent noise a recent morning, I lay there pondering all that stands between me and my fantasy of total silence. A litany of noises began to develop: emergency vehicle sirens, dogs barking, birds sounding off, the upstairs neighbor dropping ____________ on his floor, a radio/TV/soundsystem of said upstairs neighbor, vehicle backup alarms, the incessant drone from a distant Interstate Highway, ceiling fans, caterwauling children in a nearby yard, car doors slamming, the rattles of a refuse truck, refrigerator motor, water moving through baseboard heating radiators, computer fans, wind, aircraft overhead (and the relentless alert of listening for a change in the sound suggesting a need to scramble under a table or bed), toilets flushing, alarm clocks, chirping smart phones, rustling leaves, waves crashing, distant dogs barking, a distant wood chipper, lawn mowers, leaf blowers, chain saws. nail drivers, augmented car exhaust systems, string trimmers, fireworks, a public address announcement from a nearby middle school, vacuum cleaners, microwave ovens, locomotive airhorns 20 feet from my front door --- to name a few. I've always had extraordinary hearing, and in testing for a state government job was rated some of the best ears ever tested. For this reason, the possibility that incessant noise might by converted to useful energy made me hope for the possibility of a more peaceful, less stressful world. Thanks for a modicum of hope!
At 80 y.o. and compared to others on this channel, I know virtually NOTHING about your work. BUT, I am deeply fascinated and recognize your footprints as being precursors of the next energy revolution -- and there WILL be one soon and surprising. I enjoy as well your highly interesting side journeys into areas like songwriting about which I am VERY much at home. Keep up your great work. I have subscribed and look forward to more of your highly intriguing explorations.
Yep, this is the first time I've had this video recommended, and I've been following you since when this channel was called "Benn & Gear". Damn you, algorithm! What a cool video, I love the experiment and I'd learned much more than I expected!
keep on with the clever shtuffs! It tickles my brain the most delightful way and although I'm a huge geek in the realms of music gear and production, the way sound plays such a big part in science, manipulation of matter, etc. really engages me. ie, loving your work man!
Benn, imo these science videos are what set you apart from the other music youtubers. I love me some synth showcase stuff as much as the next guy. But to me the research of audio for other practical (or impractical) purposes is much more interesting. Please please keep doing these
I'm surprised that videos like these don't do well. I find it not just interesting, but important, to understand the science behind things I find aesthetically pleasing/displeasing.
I really enjoy your vaguely music adjacent science content. I also enjoy your music content. Keep doing whatever you do and I'll keep watching all of it.
Great video. I'm a 2nd year physics student. In our statistical thermodynamic course we quite recently used phonon and magnon waves Debye model to calculate thermal energy, specific heat and some other properties of materials. For the first approximation (einstein model) you can view atoms like separate (motion of one not affecting another). Then the energy of an atom is just that of a linear harmonic oscilator: \hbar \omega (n_x + n_y + n_z + 3/2). From there it' s a trivial exercise to calculate other things. It turns out however that einsteins model works well at high temperatures but it's completely wrong for the low temperatures. But it turns out, that the Debye model despite how strange it seems gives correct results, also at low temperatures. The derivation was super long with a ton of approximations so it truely seems like a miracle that such a far fetched model works so well.
Hey I havent watched a video in awhile but I love your nerdy stuff & explaining sound via how it effects physical world. like sound as weapons or this video. very appreciative
The science videos are my favourite. To be brutally honest I don't really care what some piece of hardware I'm never going to own is like. Much more interested in hearing your ideas and thoughts! Keep on the good work.
You should make these type videos a series called something like Benn’s Rabitholes or The Benn Jordan Rabithole Extravaganza, or.. well you get the idea. My point is you fall down some of the most interesting rabitholes. It’s kinda one of the things that sets you apart.
I was tempted to skip this one because I knew the answer was "no", but I'm so glad I clicked, this is fascinating stuff! You have a habit of highlighting interesting perspectives and details.
Id like to see a separate channel where the entire theme is science of sound. You’re the first science/youtuber that acknowledges the infinite amount of variables in measurement and accepts that it changes the outcome of a theory based on which measurement you are using or the context of such .
As someone who first started listening to your music in the mid 2000's, I never thought I'd be watching you on RUclips, I can't wait for you to get that quantum computer, that'll be interesting. Also, just thought I'd let you know that when I saw your October 2012 performance at the Adler planetarium, it was an amazing experience and I was literally left speechless, my friend and I didn't say a damn thing for at least five minutes as we walked back to the metra station.
You kept me interested through to the end. I didn't have high hopes that you were going to be powering a home with noise pollution though. Excellent video anyhow, thank you.
Hope you're doing what you like. I'm out though, I was mostly interested in the music, and even the brain video wasn't really anything about music. Have a great time. I'll always listen to your albums
Wow, this is an amazing video! It is interesting, informative, and truly funny. Just like any other of your science learning videos. I stumbled on your channel a few weeks ago and only wish I had done it earlier.
I wonder if it would make for an interesting video measuring what makes more of a sound when you hit something, the thing doing the hitting or the object being hit. Imagine isolating the sound of a drumstick’s vibration when it hits a drum. Might be cool
1. Play bass note through subwoofer around 60 hz will do. 2.properly connect an led across raw speaker of at least 6" Place speaker facing sub around a few inches 4. Note led light up. 5. Next ?
Sylvia Massy filters audio through light bulbs (and other conductive things) and she says they light up. There's a video somewhere where she explains how. It would be cool to see a demo video of different light bulbs filtering audio
I love these kinds of videos !!! These and your product assessment videos are what made me subscribe to you ! Thanks for all you do ! Love the sarcasm in some of the videos. Totally cracks me up ! Have a great day !!! 😁👍
Ok maybe I need a few sequels to some of this science to get the full picture, but I’m a bit illiterate to this science to begin with. Having said that, you should know I learned a lot. I stuck with the video through to the end and was disappointed when it was over. Your a great, great teacher!
Most sound produced in nature is a byproduct of inefficiencies in systems as they operate (unless they're intended to make a sound). But you can literally hear electricity if you're under the right power lines (yes, it is easily harvestable but that's not the point right this second). I have actually proposed a voice activated power on mode for devices that utilized the input energy of your voice to disrupt its off state, basically a true voice activated device that could use literally zero power until you spoke to it. I only suggested it a few times before i got tired of being either laughed out of conference rooms or told I was insane; usually both. Thanks for the validation, even if it's only meaningful to me in a tangentially anecdotal way. That was nice to have today.
It makes me sad that these videos generate low viewer counts because my God these videos are so interesting and cool, and the executive functional drive of this man is unbelievable
please continue with science content, you always come up with something new i havent heard of yet
I second that! It’s rare to find funny, well researched and formulated science videos on RUclips. The only content by Ben that tops this are the field recording adventures.

i have always suspected there to be some element to sound beyond "it just moves air," learned a bunch :)
