3 Dimensional Ear Sculpture:


  1. physical model depicts level of detail

    1. suggest making middle ear more pronounced

  2. 7 feet high (fits within frame

  3. 3 feet deep

  4. Detail equal to Physical model


  1. parts of ear labeled directly on ear sculpture (Sticky note them with dimensional arrows)

    1. "say something here"

    2. Ear Canal

    3. Eardrum

    4. Ossicles

    5. Cochlea

    6. Eustachian Tube

    7. Audible Nerve

  2. please state any further labels

  3. sub notes (white sticky notes with dimensional arrows)

    1. sound goes this way

    2. sound beats on like a drum (pointing to eardrum)

    3. eardrum makes these wiggle (speaking of Ossicles)

    4. ossicles tickle little hairs in here

    5. little hairs turn sound into electricity

    6. brain figures out what sound is and lets you hear it.

  4. please state any further labels

How the Ear is Animated to visually show the path of sound and a result.


  1. 1.say something into the ear where a microphone picks up a short recording of what was said

  2. 2.the ear canal has rings of LED light rings that pulsate toward the ear drum (3 seconds)

  3. 3.the eardrum and Ossicles (all connected) VIBRATE with some light behind to highlight (3 seconds)

  4. 4.the Cochlea has LED lights that chase in the curly q shape of the organ simulating how the sound goes through (3 seconds)

  5. 5.the Audible Nerve also has internal LED lights that chase towards the brain and simultaneously the sound recorded by the guest at the outer ear is replayed back to them through a speaker at the end of the Audible nerve
