instrument-a-day 21: square whistle
Found a piece of square aluminum tubing lying around. It already had holes in it. It needed to be a whistle.
instrument-a-day 20: trumpet whistle
Can a whistle be used in place of a trumpet mouthpiece? …no.
instrument-a-day 19: international talking dots
It draws randomly from about 75,000 sound files tagged “pronunciation” on wikipedia. Try it yourself at pentametron.com/talkingdots/ (you’ll probably need a modern desktop web browser)
instrument-a-day 18: drummed sticks
Sequel to yesterday’s bowed bow.
instrument-a-day 17: bowed bow
instrument-a-day 16: metro clarimpet
A pocket trumpet with a clarinet mouthpiece and a reed made out of a metrocard. Probably would be played better by anyone who knew how to play a trumpet or a clarinet.
instrument-a-day 15: rubber band minizither
instrument-a-day 14: tocattamatic for four disklaviers
I had a short time to make something with the Disklaviers before it was time to put them away.
