Sound propagates through space as a series of vibrations; the physical attributes of this motion excite and engage listeners on another level. For example, when standing close to a loudspeaker, you can feel the propagation of waveforms through the speaker cone; this is particularly prominent at low frequencies. Instrumentalists feel parallel, physical sensations as their instrument produces sound. Additional haptic and vibrotactile stimulation can provide a further sensory modality, or channel of communication through which musical information can be enhanced.
