This experiment is based on ’cymatics’ - the study of visible sound and vibration. Typically, the surface of a plate, diaphragm, or membrane is vibrated, and regions of maximum and minimum displacement are made visible in a thin coating of particles, paste, or liquid (in this case a mixture of cornstarch and water). Different patterns emerge in the medium depending on the geometry of the plate and the driving frequency.
