What is “sound”?
How Do We Hear Sounds?
What about TV? What about the radio? What about cell phones?
What about the string phone?
What about the "Thread of Light" phone?
While gazing at the Tokyo Skytree from Tokyo Port City Takeshiba—the venue for the research institute—we made a "string telephone" made of light!
We've posted photos of our research lab on our website!
Be sure to check it out.
★We will also be holding the research program at Takeshiba from December through January (a two-month course).
We're still accepting applications for our elementary school classes!
