Cover the drum skin with a thin, even layer of sand, pepper or any suitable powder to hand. Play the drum near the rim and watch the sand gather into a pattern over the whole skin. It should gather into piles where the skin is not vibrating (nodes) and be cleared where it is vibrating the most (antinodes) The pattern will change depending on skin tension and where the skin is being struck. Look up Chladni plates for similar evidence.

What part of bongo vibrates to produce a sound?

In a bongo drum, the sound is produced by the vibration of its drumhead, which is typically made of animal skin or synthetic materials. When the drumhead is struck with the hands, it vibrates, creating sound waves that resonate through the drum's body. The pitch and tone of the sound can be influenced by factors such as the tension of the drumhead and the size of the drum.
