The physics of wind-blown sand poses a variety of intriguing problems whose proper solution seems to require statistical ideas and methods, partly new. The main traits of the processes of transport and sorting of sand particles by wind or by water are described, and a review is given of results obtained and of subjects for further study.

Books of Sand are interactive installations that relate the movement of hands in the sand to hypertexts containing Jorge Luis Borges texts taken from the Web. It consists of one or more glass buckets full of sand that when touching it with the hands, projected codes retrieved from the Web arise interacting with the movement of the hands.A video camera ...

Many desert sand dunes emit a loud sound with a characteristic tremolo around a well-defined frequency whenever sand is avalanching on their slip face. This phenomenon, called the 'song of dunes', has been successfully reproduced in the lab, on a smaller scale.

Physical Review Letters, 1992
We have studied the vibrations in a granular material and have found that they are qualitatively different from those found in solids or liquids. In response to an external oscillation, the vibrations experienced by a single particle in the material are exceedingly noisy with a power spectrum S(f)\ensuremath{\propto}${\mathit{f}}^{2.2}$ over more than ...
