Kinetic Sand/Play-Doh
This ASMR type is all about soft flowing visuals and sliding cutting sounds, with some crunch for good measure. (If you don't like the crunch, Play-Doh is a good alternative!) Below, you'll see how glass and metal objects make kinetic sand sound so cool!
Terms to Know
- Cup trimming: the use of a glass to "shave" off small slices of a cylindrical lump of kinetic sand. This creates a beautiful cascading visual effect, plus some lovely resonant sliding sounds.
