OCARINA · Slip-Cast Ceramic Ocarina (OCA-001) — V5 explorer candidate
Status
V5 candidate  Not build-ready
Family
Single vessel-flute target; Helmholtz model recorded in family-spec.csv with measurement-required caveats.
Release gates
  • Measure fired clay shrinkage and water-fill chamber volume before freezing the slip-cast master scale.
  • Validate OCA-P1 fipple response and closed-chamber pitch before expanding the hole set.
  • Log measured frequency and cents error in validation.csv through bisque and glaze-fire tuning passes.
  • Keep production CAD/STL release deferred until empirical voicing validation confirms the chamber, windway, and labium geometry.

01 · OverviewSlip-Cast Ceramic Ocarina (OCA-001) — V5 explorer candidate

ocarina — concept render

This explorer is the studio-facing build packet for ocarina. Sections below cover the Helmholtz vessel-flute model, slip-cast build packet, BOM, validation log, Wolfram scaffold, risks, and capstone deliverables.

Authority boundary

Current fabrication authority is candidate-only. Chamber volume, voicing window, clay shrinkage, and tuning are inferred from the workbook/OpenSCAD starter or marked measurement-required until physical prototypes are measured.
