Awesome Guitar Oscillations Captured With IPhone 4

Note this effect is due to the rolling shutter, which is non-representative of how strings actually vibrate. Tips: • You must have the strings brightly backlit to get the camera to capture at such a high frame rate (pure conjecture). You can see how the effect fades when the buildings come into view. • Use a pencil *This was used with the front facing camera, try the back camera, it may capture better! (tried it, it didn't look as good for me) There is a heated discussion with *real science* over at reddit http://www.reddit.com/r/reddit.com/comments/in2rc/guitar_string_oscillations_... *UPDATE here is the 'tracklist' :14 - "Tears in Heaven" by Eric Clapton :56 - "Signe" by Eric Clapton 2:57 - Snippet of "Tomorrow Land" by John Scofield - the rest is just noodling around.
