Fine Collection of Curious Sound Objects

This Fine Collection of Curious Sound Objects is a project by Georg Reil and Kathy Scheuring. It is nice to see how they created a piece of sound art that also looks great. We see a couple of everyday objects which are modified to surprise users with their sonic abilities.  

All speakers, microphones and cables are carefully hidden inside the objects so they do not spoil the magic. While the sonic results are not mind blowing, the strength of this sound installation is how intuitive the and simple the objects work. They seem fun to play with for a while, and then put them away because of their limited functionality.

The Fine Collection of Curious Sound Objects consists of a matchbox, a laundry detergent bottle, a messenger bag, a coffee grinder, a shoe and a bucket, all with a stylish black finish. Watch the movie to find out what happens when you use them.
