"The Cake system consists of three modular speakers and a subwoofer station, which together generate spatial sound for immersive group sessions. Each module receives live audio signals from the station via a 2.4GHz RF channel, while wired Ethernet ensures stable, low-latency performance. This configuration minimizes delay or interruptions, allowing participants to remain synchronized even across long distances. The Butter device translates sound into vibrations, giving users a tactile sense of rhythm alongside the auditory experience."
"Hotcake is a system designed to enable collaborative music-making regardless of location. The project integrates a unit called Cake with a wearable device named Butter, combining 3D spatial audio with haptic feedback to reproduce the sense of playing together in the same space. Designers Woojin Jang, Eunhye Jang, Hyeryoung Jeong, Ilyeo Lee, and Chaeeun Kim join to realize the creative project."
