Easily, the most engaging of our new sound vibration exhibits will be the Organ Pipes. Organ Pipes lets visitors control both the very large bellows to create air flow, and control the combination of "Pipes" that make a variety of strange and wonderful sounds. You will imagine a train coming down the tracks when you blow the multi-chambered train whistle, or feel like you are in church listening to a pipe organ with combinations of our single chamber pipes. And, by controlling the intensity of the pressure that is applied to the bellows, you also control the volume and tone of the sound coming from the pipes.

For sheer amazement, the new exhibit that will leave you wondering "how does it do that?" will be the Bite-A-Phone. You may be reluctant to actually bend down and bite on an exhibit with your teeth, but that is how it works! Also, you may wonder how that can be sanitary? ExplorationWorks protects our visitors by requiring that a clean straw be placed on the exhibit rod after each use. That way, you know you will not be sharing your bite experience with anyone else. So, what happens when you bite the rod on Bite-A-Phone? Well, that is something you will have to come in and experience for yourself.

Have you ever admired street musicians and their ability to make music from just about anything, from garbage cans to stair railings? Now you too can slap out your favorite Beach Boys tune on our Slap-A-Phone. By just using a pair of flip-flops as your drumsticks, and slapping them on our set of very tall PVC pipes you CAN make your own music. So, come on by to see these new exhibits and many more.

Good Vibrations was developed by the Discovery Center of Idaho and will be at the ExplorationWorks center beginning in mid-January 2010.
