# Trickling Sound Art The Sound of Glass by Bohyun Yoon uses Water as its Medium By Allison Love | Published 2010-07-15 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-sound-of-glass References: [designboom](http://www.designboom.com/weblog/cat/10/view/10851/bohyun-yoon-sound-of-glass.html) & [bohyunyoon](http://www.bohyunyoon.com/) The Sound of Glass by Bohyun Yoon is an interesting device which creates sound through the [relay of water](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perfect-cheers). The device is made from a single [piece of molded glass](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/podio-cup) transformed into a hollow shape, giving it the ability to create different sounds. There is also a spout on the Sound of Glass helmet with which its wearers can pour water into other helmets. The idea is to [create unique sounds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moment-installation) using the water and spouts as a form of performance art.
