At last, where you might expect a ding-dong, there is now a stertorous mooing mhhhh! These are just some of the contraptions displayed. The everyday doorbell has been replaced by a curious device that makes a sound like thunder. The former door knocker is now amplified by a vibrant dong! The familiar buzzer has been replaced by an energetic drum roll. Well-known chimes step aside and are replaced by a curious metallophone triggered by a punch card reminiscent of traditional mechanical music boxes. They have designed a range of mechanical and electrical doorbells that offer a unique, sometimes even thunderous, sound experience. With this in mind, the students have offered a fresh and original take on an everyday object, one that is unremarkable yet never silent-the doorbell. What do all these actions have in common? Movement, friction and interaction which draw on the basic laws of physics to create tones. Just pull up a chair, open or close a drawer or even flip a switch and you will create sound.
Nevertheless, most everyday objects potentially produce sounds. Sound and object design are two notions that industrial designers rarely have the opportunity to combine. According to the Theorytab database, it is the 2nd most popular key among Minor keys and the 7th most popular.
This project is part of the “Sound & Vision” exhibition, shown for the first time, in collaboration with EPFL+ECAL Lab, at the 2019 Milan International Furniture Fair Ring My Bell is written in the key of C Minor. Coz the way that we touch is something that we can't deny And the way that you move oh you. Sometimes we rush it Sometimes we fall It doesn't matter baby we can take it real slow.
ECAL showcases “Ring my Bell”, an offbeat collection of interactive doorbells, while the EPFL+ECAL Lab unleashes the potential of Virtual Reality with “Hands on Vision”.ĭONG ! TRRRRRR! Or maybe even GLING! Or BLING!, MHHHH! And sometimes even BRAOUM! ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne presents an offbeat collection of interactive doorbells developed by first-year Bachelor Industrial Design students, under the joint guidance of Stéphane Halmaï-Voisard, Head of Bachelor Industrial Design, and Mathieu Rivier, a Bachelor Media & Interaction Design graduate. Sometimes you love it Sometimes you don't Sometimes you need it then you don't and you let go. On the occasion of the “Sound & Vision” exhibition, ECAL and the design research centre EPFL+ECAL Lab awaken your senses through a range of immersive experiences, from surprising ringing bells to audiovisual music recordings.
