Millions gather, and nobody thinks up of experiments to try?!


Ardh-Kumbh mela going on in Prayagraj (allahabad):

Massive crowds prepare for Mela

How about this experiment: Hook up speakers all over the few square
miles of the pilgrimage area and adjust the time delays so that any
sound from any point of that area will constructively interfere with
sounds emanating from other areas, as sound waves travel from the
center outwards. An announcement on the speakers will cue the pilgrims
to sing aloud "Har Har Gangay!".

I wonder what millions of people singing Har Har Gangay at the same
time, synchronized to amplify, will be like. I wonder if it will do
something strange or unexpected. At the least, it would be a thrilling
thing to do.
