About Dandelion Seed Kipaza Sauti chenye Taa
Dandelion Seed ni kipaza sauti chenye taa iliyounganishwa ndani yake. Muundo huu umejikita katika kuheshimu mimea kama viumbe hai. Umbo lake linarejelea hatua tatu za maisha ya ua la dandelion: mbegu, ukuaji, na kufa. Mpira wa kioo wenye tundu la ndani hutengenezwa kwa njia ya kupuliza kioo (glass blowing) na hubeba betri pamoja na taa za LED. Teknolojia ya sumaku (magnetic field) inaufanya mpira huo kuonekana kama unaelea juu ya kitako chake. Sauti husambaa katika pande zote 360, na kifaa kinaweza kuunganishwa kupitia Bluetooth. Muziki unaochezwa na kipaza sauti hiki unawakilisha ishara ya sauti ya kimya ya mmea. Mwanga laini uliopo unalenga kusaidia watu kupumzika.
