instrument-a-day 2: rain simulator
February 2nd, 2009
Motor, battery, bead garland, and drum.
I made a failed whistle, followed by a squawky plastic double reed which didn’t seem worth calling an instrument-of-the-day. Then I bumped a bead garland off of the sewing table, and as it slowly drizzled over the edge, I had the idea for the rain simulator. It sounds like this. Video here.
