Description
The RainForest Sound Fountaintm
was specifically designed to produce a wide spectrum sound field for providing
tinnitus relief and for use as an aid to relaxation and meditation practice.
While designed primarily for its auditory effects, the fountain also reads as a
dynamic water sculpture (click on video below).
The RainForest Sound
Fountain is one of several fountains specifically developed by us for helping
tinnitus sufferers cope with "ringing in the ears." Having a sound spectrum
encompassing the range of impairment of many persons with tinnitus, the
fountains can aid in tinnitus habituation, residual inhibition, and masking,
and can be used as an adjunct to tinnitus retraining therapy and other
treatment schemes.
The rainforest reservoir is made of cast
dyed resin. A patent pending bubble chamber mixes an evolving stream of air and
water to add complexity to the generated sound.injects air into a water stream
and adds complexity to the generated sound. Polypropylene balls and an
adjustable flow pump allow the characteristics of the sound generated by the
fountain to be modified. The resin pyramid rests on a vibration insulating base
of acrylic and damping foam with adjustable leveling feet.
