We first used a plastic bucket to contain water, and leave the material problem to the later stage. We didn't get an underwater microphone, instead, we used a condom on a normal microphone for water prove. During the test on the desk, we realised the vibration transmitted by the attached material is extremely strong. To reduce it, we had a thick scarf.

Inspired by whales that the sound they made underwater is so dim and distanced. We were standing in the entrance of blaak and hearing sharp noises from the surroundings, an idea of making analogue filter came up in our minds.

First Time Testing

The first (and only) prototype.

We first used a plastic bucket to contain water, and leave the material problem to the later stage. We didn't get an underwater microphone, instead, we used a condom on a normal microphone for water prove. During the test on the desk, we realised the vibration transmitted by the attached material is extremely strong. To reduce it, we had a thick scarf. Afterwards, we decided to bring the device outside the studio to check the effect.

The result of testing outside fitted our anticipation. And it also showed some improvement to be done.

Process

The device consisted of two parts, the analogue part and the digital part.

The bent metal is the main and constructed component, it was covered and patted with thick foam board in order to reduce the transmitted vibration. A big clip attached to the top of metal for hanging and stabilizing the microphone. For better looking, we sprayed paint it.

The microphone was placed in a condom for waterproof, connected to a sound recorder for adjusting and a set headphone.

Second Time Testing and Filming

Testing and filming at tram station, train station, the plaza in front of markthal.
