Sorry for unpleasant sounds, but symmetry patterns are quite fascinating 
I have actually tried to do something like this at home when I was a boy. Memories, memories…

Hi Dmitry
This video is very impressive. It is much more interesting than the standard 1D string standing wave experiment. The geometry is square, so the eigenfunctions are still sine and cosine. But in 2D,the resonance patterns are much richer.
