A guitar mixes its overtones like 1/n², a violin like 1/n. And wherever the finger plucks, every vibration with a node exactly there stays silent.

Where you pluck shapes the sound
Plucked, the overtones fall like 1/n², bowed like 1/n, and overtones with a node at the plucking point vanish. Four instruments, four recipes: the circle back to episode 1 closes.

Every film here listens. Pause it, ask it questions and let it continue with your own examples.
- PauseTap pause or press the space bar. The film waits right at that moment.
- AskTap “Ask” and type what you want to know. The answer comes inside the film, with picture and voice.
- Steer itTell it what to show, for example “Do this with z = 2 − 3i”. The film sets up the app and works it out.
- Try it yourselfWhile it is paused, drag points and sliders yourself. “Continue” takes you back into the film.
Without an account: five questions per visit. With an account you can also ask by voice.
