Update on various projects

Speaker design project:

5 cardboard housings were built for speakers.
There were also a further 7 tin can speakers, visually like a child's makeshift tin-can-phone.

Each speaker was assigned a specific sine frequency that made its housing resonate and produce another tone and texture.

The work was displayed as a 5.1 Dolby Surround system, with the speakers hanging from the ceiling. It invites you to step inside the surround system and listen to how the tones are manipulated by the ramshackle speaker housings, and vice versa.
