I believe what I can see or feeling.
I need an autopsy of different devices, to learn from them.
To make an object with a kind of smartness, I needed to know how the smartness is working.
And then I can produce with this knowledge, an object from the smallest scale as possible to the bigest scale as possible.
In this course I can start from the microcontoler and the circuits to the dissemination plan.
Something who amplify the sound : Lexon Mini hacked#
I like to know how I can make a global design from sustainability tools, objects and products. So I’m very interested about power.
I think It’s the futur, our futur for designer, how can we make autonomus object.
Also the solar pael are like treasure, like ittle jewellery !
this way to opened different device is very interesting part beacause we can see the cheaply device inside and see how we could make it. But the industrial process is bigger than our fablab…
a way to communicate with our own body, a way to care of our energy with meditation protocols
music
to listen music every day at every moment : in the transport to have more energy to go to work, alone, with friends or at home. As a kind of identity powerfull caracter. To be with a community.
vibration
bone conductor is more than bones possibility of use is also a multi surface conductor
conclusion
My final conclusion is that the spiral coil work as a speaker, the bone conductor work as a hearphone device and a speaker device

Nota Bene The Amp device does not change the sound. The quality of the sound depends to differents parameters like : the Hall Effect from the magnet.
The indication is in uF from the app is in uF : because .

Output device for sound : Spiral coil Files from parametric design#
Design a flate spiral coil
Make the file to insulate the + trace from the center
the whole circle structure
file for flat spiral saved with .dwg
Thread structure with notch
thread simple structure
lasercuted spiral coil with the circuit in one piece
The design of the spiral coil can be find with an online calculator :#
Di =inner diameter in inches. / s =distance between windings in inches. / w =wire diameter in inches. / N = number of turns. / Do =outer diameter. / 1 inch = 0,0254m=2,54cm = 25,4mm.

Conclusion : My Flat spiral coil is a 100 uF value.
If this device could change different material and
we could change all material or object in speakers.
This observations as a designer interest me.
It’s maybe a new thing that it can change our daily gestures and mouvements…
I’m very interested about it, like how we can ear a sound from our bones or from a plant !!
The interest of the bones conductor is that I could put on/in differents material/shape, like daily object to make sound.
Or listen sound through plants…
I can imagine that my device could amplify the input audio signal and the output could be the bones, but also every material around us.
Change and switch for different materiality products.
It that means, change material, for design sustainability development goals.
* with recycled materials : silk or other fabric from second hand shops/stock/recycleindustry
* with bio material : from wastes, from
As my interest in circular and sustainable protocol, I have tried to work on this problematic.
I used to go there and there to buy my clothes, and often I found old silk garment. I would like to re-use it.
The thin membrane is a technical details in order to have the best sound quality.
I have tried different things and the best one at this moment is the silk paper.
So for a test I try to make a spiral coil membrane with a paper silk circle and a copper shield spiral.
Basic V.2 shape
Fusion design coil parameters
Insulated the trace from the center of the coil I created a new module like an added skin layer
I use to save the trace for lasercutting in .dwg and opened the files in illustrator to change it with a pdf extension.
The added layer is 3D printed with Cura.
