Is analyzed by the application Of Four
ier's theorem, to determine the COM
ponent tones present and to learn how
tremendously they blend. 1t is a
rather curious fact that the expert
Iisent Of turning a profile into sound,
and then back again into profile, was
inspired by the discovery of the pho
tograph of certain tone of French
horn, which bore very close resem-
blance to a human profile. The prog
ress of the experiment was as fol-
lows:
A Photographic negative of a pleas
ing profile was placed in a projecting
lantern and the image was thrown in
on sheet of paper. The profile was
accurately traced. The curve was
then analysed by the harmonic an
alyzer," and found to consist of IA
components. The equation was "prov-
ed" by setting up the IA simple COM
ponents on the harmonic synthesizer.
The composite curve of this profile is
to the eye just what rich musical
harmony is to the ear. The equation
is equivalent to the musical notation
of the chord.
u
And not only is this analysis pos
sible, but the harmonious musical
notes which the component curves in
the profile represent, can be combin-
ed to produce wave form in the air
which, when photographed, will be a
reproduction of the photograph. This
is done by selecting IA organ pipes
delicately voiced and accurately ton
ed. Thees are all set up in aminia'
ture organ and connected with {
source of compressed air.
When all are sounded simultaneous
ly the result is chord in perfect har
mony. If this harmony is photograph
ed, the face is seen in the waveform
If we add a sharp chin or nose to th'
profile and reproduce it in sound ther'
is at once noticeable discord. SINH
hlarly a discordant note added to tn
I"profile music" at once dis6gures tn

Beautiful Faces Translated Into
Music.

Music.
By Harry A. Mount, in the Septem-
Der Popular Mechanics Magazine
A beautiful face is symphony Of
vision. And there's nothing sentimen-
tai about that, either. 1t is cold
scientific fact, capable of demonstra-
tion just as conclusively as is a geo
metric theorem.
For the curves that make a beau
tiful profile can be translated into
sound and the result will be perfect
harmony.
| Such an experiment has recently
been performed by DR.. Dayton c. Mil
Ter, of the Case School of Applied
Science, Cleveland, who is we'll known
in the scientific world as an author
ity on the physical nature of sounds.
When an investigator wishes to
study a sound, he first obtains a pho
tograph of the sound, by the use of
the phonodeik. This instrument is a
boxlike arrangement from which pro-
jects a photograph horn. In fact, at
first glance it appears to be a sort of
crude phonograph. The phonograph
horn, however, is for the purpose of
collecting sound waves, not sending
them, and at its tip is a simple dia-
| phragm. To the center of this dia-
phragm is attached very fine piece
,of silk fiber, wound once around an
upright spindle, and held by spring
Each vibration of the diaphragm
| therefore, pulls the fiber back anC
4 forth and causes the spindle to turr
from side to side. A mirror of almost
microscope proportions is attached tC
this spindle, and a spot of light from
an arc lamp, admitted through pin
hole, falls on this mirror and is re-
flected by it. When the diaphragm i:
in motion, therefore, the light dance!
from side to side.
| This spot of light falls on wheel
which has its outer rim lined with {
series of little fiat mirrors. Thi'
wheel is revolved by an electric motor
The result is that the spot Of light il
reflected from the wheel to a ground
glass screen, as series of dots O.
light that pass from the top of tn,
bottom and again to the top of tn,
screen, and so forth, at the same tim,
oscillating with the movement of tn
sound diaphragm. The dots of ligh
, follow each other across the screen il
such rapid succession that they ap
pear to be a solid line of light tina
curves and writhes about over tn
screen like thing alive.
In fact it reproduces exactly tn
wave form Of the original sound. T
photograph the wave form, it is onl
, necessary to allow the reflected dc
of light to fall on a revolving film, in
stead Of the mirror wheel. A tuning
