Abstract

This article describes a practice based artistic investigation which produced a participatory installation consisting of sculptural objects informed by sound vibration patterns. The installation, called the “Chladni Wall”, brings together Chladni bricks. These are based on analogue 2D Chladni patterns made with granular material scattered on a plate and activated by sound vibrations. One or more Chladni patterns are transformed into 3D sculptures. Four areas where Chladni pattern informed 3D objects could be applied further are identified. Namely, for (1) educational curricula which integrate teaching acoustics, 3D modelling and digital fabrication, (2) for designing objects with special acoustic properties, (3) as help in voice training and with speech impediments and finally (4) for providing sonic experiences to the hearing impaired.
