Self-Organization
System of a large number of similar components
In this case the components are the audience members
One event triggers an other event in the opposite direction

Clapping Begins as incoherent at the beginning of
applause session, but suddenly can become synchronized
Clapping can desynchronize and resynchronize several times during applause

Research The paper writers decided to study
applause by recording it at the end of several performances in European concert halls
The synchronization was recorded and graphed
Clapping was determined to be periodic

Research Discovered that the period of the claps
doubled as they became synchronized However, noise intensity decreases as
synchronization increases Audience fluctuates between
synchronization and intensity with their clapping

Further Testing Researchers tested the period increase by
asking lone individuals to clap for applause and then clap for rhythm
The period doubled between the applause and the rhythmic clapping

Synchronized Clapping in the US Audiences synchronize their clapping less
often in the United States than in Europe Researchers surmised that this difference
occurs because the US is less homogeneous than European nations
