Detergent-bottle theremin?

Fine Collection of Curious Sound Objects is a rather cryptic project by design students Georg Reil and Kathy Scheuring, who transform ordinary household objects into acoustical and musical experiments.

The magical character of each object is accompanied with a little story, almost completely concealing the existence of technical components such as speakers or sensors. Only small connection ports as well as the uniform black finishing point to thier unusual abilities.

In form and functionalty all these exhibits pursue John Maeda’s „Simplicity”. They are enjoying to use, they are surprising and one wants to explore and investigate them.
