I believe this was originally explored by Sam Henri Gold, at least that's the first time I saw it a while ago :)

Reminds me of Sam Henri Gold's project: https://www.theverge.com/news/773472/a-bored-design-engineer...
He's also the person who originally came up with the creaking door: https://bsky.app/profile/samhenri.gold/post/3ly7252lx422d
