Look up "Fingers and Holes in a Shaken Cornstarch Solution" on Google. The lab video is fascinating. I would like to see this demo set up as a large scale art piece in a public location. The device could be shaped like a "bird bath" and could be surrounded with colored light enhanced water fountains
dancing in synch to orchestrated frequency changes induced in the mixture. UV lamps could highlight fluorescent materials added to the cornstarch recipe. The eerie fingers and holes could be dramatized even further with strobe effects.
The Exploratorium in San Francisco would be a great place for such a display.
