Started as an idea to experiment with the organic patterns created with sound waves and test the CNC Milling technique to the fullest potential. We focused on exploiting the RhinoCAM to the maximum extent.

The main objective of our design process was to create an interesting pattern derived merely out of sound waves and enhance the quality of light through the Corian material.

We derived the waves of sound from a song – “Don’t Mess With Sunday” in the form of curves using Processing; translated these curves into a surface using Rhino & Grasshopper. Finally, to do justice to our concept, we used various parameters of RhinoCAM to achieve the final texture of our lamp.
