After fiddling about with club nights for the deaf (seriously, they exist and they’re kinda amazing), we alighted upon the idea of using some good, old-fashioned Cymatics – or the science of showing sound through visual means.
We worked with Unit9 to take the speakers apart and then to explore the different means we could use of showing the sound they create through a spot of social and editorial content.
