Sonair is a design object that focuses on my relationship with my mother, but also my relationship with my Asian American heritage. This object is a 3D printed soundwave of an interview with my mother about her immigration from Taiwan to Portland, Oregon. I put the audio files in Processing to get a .png, rotated the .png in Fusion 360, 3D printed the sound wave, and laser cut the acrylic plastic frame. In the interview, my mother describes her struggles of being an immigrant along with being marginalized and discriminated against for being an Asian Woman.
