More Acoustical Objects

Architectradure reports on yet another experiment with sound making devices produced by 3D printing technology, following up on our recent acoustical post. In this experiment, designer and engineer Amit Zoran has produced a unique guitar by assembling parts designed with software and produced by a 3D printer. Using specialized software, Zoran designed chambers suitable for optimal production of sounds, as can be seen in the picture above.

With the discovery of at least two experimenters in 3D print acoustics recently, it appears that sound may indeed be another area of interest for 3D printing. While some may say that current 3D print technology produces only fragile objects, it is clear that there are still many uses for these objects.
