The Tone of Things

In the interaction with our environment, all senses play together shaping this experience. In addition to visual and tactile qualities, physical things also have a sound inherent in their material and form, which can be experienced in the process of interacting with them. Objects of the technosphere often use sound only in a very primitive form to convey information. In this project, we explored the auditive space in order to enrich everyday objects and situations through consciously designed sound experiences. The goal of the studio project, finally presented on February 16th, 3.00 pm was to create an interaction or an object that exemplifies this new quality and thus establishes the »tone« as a dimension to be designed.
