The Art of Sound by Jaguar F-Type SVR, the first in a series of films, demonstrates the science of cymatics and making sound waves visible. Bringing to life the utterly distinctive and pulse-quickening sound of the F-Type SVR, it visualises the sports car’s Titanium Active Exhaust frequencies as intriguing patterns.

The 130-second film, directed by Steve Downer, was filmed in the Jaguar Land Rover semi-anechoic chamber at Gaydon, Coventry, UK. The social-led campaign will launch on Jaguar’s global channels including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube targeting Jaguar fans.

The concept was devised by Spark44, the global creative and demand creation partner agency for Jaguar Land Rover; and executed by the FX specialist Machine Shop. A bespoke algorithm was built to interpret the exhaust note of the F-Type SVR and transform it into frequencies to form these patterns, transforming the poppy seeds into kaleidoscopic visuals. The multiple pattern images formed and changed, subject to the changes in exhaust sound.
