Alright alright, yes, it's another snow globe idea.
If the particles in a snow globe were very close to neutrally buoyant at room temp, then placing it atop a stereo should cause the glittery bits to assume random pleasing patterns.
If the particles were chemiluminescent it would make for a faux
glow snow globe fo sho y'know.
OR...

If the particles were inducibly magnetic (e.g. if they contained iron filings) then they might do fascinating things in changing magnetic fields - like near your stereo. |

[4whom] - that is the coolest thing I have seen in
the last three days. Thanks for the link. |

Ditto, and it's got me wondering if a similar effect could be mimicked by bouncing the waves of a single sound source off of four flat planes to converge in the center. |

The "particles" could actually be cryogenically frozen
people packed inside a transparent spherical
container. |

poor man's sono-luminescence, but good idea despite being a s*** g****. |

I've taken the pledge, at S*** G****s Anonymous...it's one day at a time brothers, one day at a time...<wanders around picking up dog ends> |

When we finish with hollowing out the moon we could do that... I don't know about transparency though. |
