Sound Level Door Stopper

Reimagine the familiar, rethink the banal, elevate the common. Introducting RPT-009: The sound level door stopper.

I always had difficulties to keep the entrance door of my apartment opened while bringing groceries inside. I just wanted to solve that annoying problem by creating a door stopper. But a door stopper with a story linked to that specific door.

As a result, I recorded the loud "Bamm!!" sound that the door makes when it closes. Then I used the level graph obtained to generate the actual door stopper. Each layer on the object is related to a sub-signal produced by the 100dB sound. From a flat curve to a 3d object !
