Cybernetic Prosthetics
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.

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.
