Bouncing Sound Systems

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Pop-Up Bass Speaker is a 3D Visualizer of Springing Spheres

— December 5, 2013 — Art & Design
Lovers of music appreciate that the medium stimulates more than just the sense of hearing, and the Pop-Up Bass adds even another dimension. Listening to songs can conjure feelings, but this sound system will excite your eyes as well.

Once you connect your media player to the amplifier, you'll see what's so special about Daniela Mata's Pop-Up Bass Speaker. The low-frequency vibrations that are emitted cause the light spheres to bounce up and down like popcorn kernels, performing as a tangible visualizer.
