Domestic Earthquake Generator – a doorbell designed to transform a slightest tap on a door into a domestic earthquake.
This product consists of two boxes: one, attached to a door, tracks the intensity of knocking; the other one is attached to any object (such as a floor, a furniture item, a chandelier or a flowerpot, etc.), to which the amplified knocking is “teleported”. The stronger the guest knocks on the door, the more intensely the chosen object trembles.
