This design is a marriage of ancient tradition and digital technology. Utilizing the secret of a traditional Korean Buddhist Bell, the Glocke amplifies and spreads the sound far and wide through an echo. The round and long shape of a bell produces causes these effects. The Glocke puts an MP3 player in the shape of this bell. The resulting sound is high quality, and LED lamps generate warm light on the surface of the bell.
