The full version of a stop motion video visualising the physics of sound, created by Katarzyna Kijek and Przemyslaw Adamski. The award winning film has been doing the rounds of film festivals for the last few years. The creators say:
[Noise is] inspired by the theoretic work of George Berkeley and basics of synesthetic perception. It’s a game of imagination provoked by sound. Individual sounds penetrating into the apartment of the main character relieved of their visual designates evoke images distant from its origins.
