vibration and rainfall

[Matt Marble <hamletist@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

hello all,

     i am curious if anyone knows where i might be able to purchase a 
fairly inexpensive vibrotactile transducer with a fairly wide frequency 
range? Also, what research is currently being done with this technology? i 
know of Chladni's and Jenny's work with visualized vibratory phenomena and 
of Bekesy's work with sensory inhibition - but that's not so recent (though 
no less significant!).

Also i am planning a comparative acoustical analysis of rainfall on land. Is 
there any other such studies (i know of the work on ocean rainfall)? Perhaps 
from the Ecological Psychoacoustics folks? In any case... Thanks,

Matt
