Daniel Dendra from anOtherArchitect, produced a tea table that was inspired by the sound recordings of Cairo’s streets. From the recordings, he generated CNC-milling patterns that created complex joints for carpentry. The underside of the table was purely inspired by the acoustics of the city of Cairo, and the complex surface flushes with a base that was curved opposite of the surface.

Both pieces can serve as a table or a noise map of Cairo.
In what ways may this work be considered an index and how may it be considered a symbol? How are sounds ways being instrumentalized in the design process?
