Process/ Rearch¶
Bigest part of these process and achiving this project will be exprimaenting with the recipes in order to find what yould work best as a binder and if combining it with other bio metrials will be befecial.
I am looking to make two molds one thats is moe for Anechoic and one theas Vertical for perserving sound quilty.
Mold Ideation
Cocept 2¶
Creating Bio based Matrial that can be used to sound proof and replace the other non bio material or have it as a better alternative in the market.
As well as potentially creating more products out of hair and binding it with bio material to be able to repuse the hair in some form even be able to use pet hair potentially to also create products out of them and reduce the use of raw materials that need to be extracted.
How can we take this natrual fibre and reource and be able to repoupose it into something more?
WHY THIS MATTERS¶
Acoustic Panels: Often combine foam, fabric, and other sound-absorbing materials.
The most popular or cruel products on the market are made of polyurethane, melamine, and fiberglass. Polyurethane can take up to 50 to 1,000 years to break down in the environment. It is made of melamine, which their studies haven't found in the exact number of years, but it can last hundreds in landfills due to its durability and materials like fiberglass.
There are other eco-friendly cutlery alternatives like: Cork, Mineral Wool, Cotton/ cellulose and Mycelium. But none that are looking into natural fibre like hair that is also a material that is often discarded and have an excess of and can repurpose to give it a second life.
Prototypes¶
First experimantatio with the material and lef them for 5 days to dry out.
