"Shaking the Ground: A 3D-Printed Culinary Earthquake Simulation"

Shaking the Ground is a powerful 3D-printed food design crafted to raise awareness about earthquakes and their devastating impact. By combining interactive design and culinary art, this project offers a tangible experience that simulates the chaos and destruction caused by seismic events.

The centerpiece is a wooden structure layered like a building, placed atop a wooden box housing a hidden mechanism. When activated, the mechanism shakes the structure, causing 3D-printed edible bricks to collapse, mimicking the effects of an earthquake. This immersive simulation invites participants to witness and reflect on the fragility of human-made structures during natural disasters.

Inspired by recent earthquakes in the creator's environment, Shaking the Ground transforms a deeply emotional subject into a thought-provoking and interactive culinary story, urging us to prioritize preparedness and resilience in the face of nature's power.
