How can we transform the voices of loved ones into kinetic mementos and wearables?
An Audio Wave Wearable is a way to bring a memory into the physical world. This project was inspired by a previous student of mine, a nine-year-old who wished she could hear her dads voice more often. She also wanted a night-light and I started to think of how to combine the two. What emerged is currently an exploration in how to create physical audio waves of various scales that move and respond in real-time to sound.
Very first concepts! Rendered in Blender.
Gen. 1a
For my very first grasshopper script, I wanted to learn how to model this natural phenomenon paramatrically.

Fist conceptual diagram.
Connecting to Arduino to test the sync eith audio and servo motors. In a future model, these servos will likely be small linear actuators.

Could we create audio wave wearable fashion?
