Wind Chimes

Product Type: Houseware Product Prototype

These wind chimes were a byproduct of the Cube Cubed design process, inspired when one of the cubes fell onto the concrete floor of the machine shop sending out an impressionable sound. This item was an exploration of the tonality of slotted aluminum w/ simple connections to emphasize the uniqueness of its resonance. The chimes were milled on lathe and slotted with a milling machine, all the rest of the materials for the finished product were found at the local hardware store.
