Wavetracer

Wave tracer traces the pulse of the sea. The instrument consists of two funnels covered with flexible rubber membranes and connected with a hose. When one of the funnels is placed underwater, changes in water pressure are reflected to the other one with a pen attached so that the movement is translated into a graph while a string-driven little sledge pulls the paper.
