Metronome Synchronization

If you place 32 metronomes on a static object and set them rocking out of phase with one another, they will remain that way indefinitely. Place them on a moveable surface, however, and something very interesting and very mesmerizing happens.

Kind of neat, but also archaic. I don't know anybody who uses a mechanical metronome any more. Everybody I know uses and electronic metronome.
