NOCC Creates Objects From Profiles of Soundwaves
Tisah Tucknott — August 27, 2009 — Art & Design
NOCC, a Paris based design studio, has created these objects (including a vase, lamp, and candle holder) using recorded sound waves. The objects are formed into a 3D form after the name of the object is clearly pronounced. The shape of the sound waves collaborated with the tone and volume of the voice determines what shape the object will take.
These incredible sound objects are produced using rapid manufacturing technology, and will soon be available online.
