Music on the Moov

MoovBox is a portable synthesizer that aims to revolutionize music listening by introducing an active approach to mixing audio while on the move. Like the iconic Moog, the MoovBox makes it easy to modify notes- simply adjust any combination of  the 7 knobs by rolling or sliding. Better yet, users can compose or add layers of their favorite string, wind or percussion instrument by using natural gestures. Need some guitar? Use your fingers to play like a fret board! Horns? Key and blow like a trumpet!

Designers: Roberto Maurizio Paura, Francesco Mammetti, & Gilles Traditi

An Audio Visualizer Made of Flames

Derek Muller du site scientifique Veritasium a rendu visite à une équipe de physiciens et chimistes qui ont construit une « Pyro Board » : un panneau audio qui contient 2 500 flammes variant selon le son auquel elles sont connectées. Une association insolite du design et de la science pure à découvrir.

Share Your Vibes

They say happiness doubles when shared. I have often seen friends or lovers listening to music tracks by sharing one earphone bud each. Such a sharing considerably reduces the quality of the music experience. Well, not with the ‘Easy Share’ earphones on. The earphone’s jack doubles up as an extender, providing more audio outlets. Be it a park or a commute, this set of earphones lets you share your favorite tunes or videos with your dear ones with out a hassle. Let the world around blur away while music connects the souls.

Touchy-feely Hearing Aid

Conventional hearing aids come with a lot of short comings. Loud noises making the wearer feel irritable, the awkwardness of wearing bigger sized hearing aids and many more. The CLOSE is an attempt at an alternative system to provide speech input to the hearing impaired by means of tactile sensations.

Fashioned like a stylish smart watch, CLOSE has been claimed to possess the capability to analyze and convert auditory signals into tactile sensations. It aims to achieve tactile communication by means of electrode arrays that simulates the feeling of touch on the wrist. The designers are confident that human brain could decipher these tactile inputs into speech patterns. CLOSE can also share information with a smartphone via Bluetooth linking.

The CLOSE concept would be a great invention if it could work perfectly as claimed by the designers. Because, not only can this be an alternative to hearing aids, but also help people with cochlear damage and zero hearing abilities.

Designers: Zhengmu Fang, Liang Wenshan & Liu Junming

Sound Solution

It is an irony that the very properties that makes a noise cancellation earphone desirable, can also deem it hazardous. Even though it feels nice to get disconnected from the chaos and din of the streets, the feature also renders you deaf to possible warning sounds such as the honking of a car or a bicycle bell. The ‘Master Your Sound’ earphones are designed to provide the best of both worlds with a feature to turn noise cancellation on and off at will. A mere twisting of a knob can turn off Noise cancellation and let the sounds from outside trickle in along with the music.

Light and Listen

The Cantador lamp brings light and sound together like never before. The minimal pendant uses hidden LEDs against a specialized film and  acid finish glass to create a diffused, multidirectional light that even illuminates upwards. An integrated sound transducer produces subtle vibrations in the glass that fall in rhythm with whatever music is playing. Together, these features create the perfect atmospheric lamp. See it in action —>
