Heliofoon / Heliophone solo exhibition STUK Listen to the sound of... the sun. On the occasion of the first public presentation of Heliophone , a collection of objects and design principles of Jacobs based on the photo-acoustic principle is presented in the STUK Verbeeckzaal. Operational prototypes functioning with laser or LED lights, stand next to a DIY chopper and a selection of parabolic mirrors. Jacobs sheds light on the different design components; from lenses and choppers to photo-acoustic cells and horns in different materials and sizes. Plans and drawings further clarify the thought processes and design decisions made.

As yet untitled research project Liquid Things / EMPA / OVERTOON EMPA different locations 2014-2015 Aernoudt Jacobs is researching electroactive polymers and other metamaterials in collaboration with EMPA (Zurich) and Liquid Things (University of Applied Arts in Vienna) . Initially Jacobs wants to conduct an investigation into a speaker that can take different shapes and can act simultaneously as an artificial sound filter. Electroactive polymers are materials that change shape as it gets supplied with electricity, and are also referred to as artificial muscles. The following months Aernoudt is doing different research sessions at EMPA and Liquid Things.
