Sound Level Door Stopper

Description: The "Sound Level Door Stopper" is an object designed from the sound wave of a door slamming.
"I always had difficulties keeping the entrance door of my apartment opened while bringing groceries inside. I just wanted to solve that annoying problem by creating a door stopper. But a door stopper with a story linked to that specific door. As a result, I recorded the loud "Bamm!!" sound that the door makes when it closes. Then, I used the level graph obtained to generate the actual door stopper. Each layer on the object is related to a sub-signal produced by the 100dB sound. From a flat curve to a 3d object! It is a tangible representation of an invisible signal.’’
