Draw any closed outline and it meshes the interior into thousands of triangles, solves the Laplacian eigenvalue problem, and plays the real vibration modes that shape permits — finite-element math, not a synthesized approximation.

It also ships Mark Kac’s two 1966 isospectral drums: different outlines, identical spectrum, indistinguishable by ear.
