non Newtonian fluid vibrating on top of my speaker in a baking tray.
Simple experiment:
mix equal quantities of cornflour and water,
Pour into a baking tray,
Strap it to a loudspeaker,
Play a sine wave at various frequencies,
blow the fluid with a straw,
then clean up the awful mess you just made!

A falling stream of silicone oil rebounds from a pool of the same oil. from the Center of Nonlinear Dynamics, University of Texas at Austin. This experiment can be done at home on a table top with common kitchen materials.
