Dan Goods is a visual strategist for [NASA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/favle22), where he develops new forms of communication. Using his intelligence and creativity, he developed a [series of bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hennessy-and-florian-zumbrunn) that at a certain angle and driving speed, will produce a musical note.

Dan Goods put a lot of effort and scientific calculations into create his [bottle music](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-disciple-by-american-metal-whiskey). He drove around aimlessly holding bottles above his car to create the perfect sound. I wonder if he will get astronauts to try this out in space.
