Here’s a video of a VERY meticulous Japanese man making an instrument – an ocarina – from a carrot. Aided with an electronic tuner, he is able to tune the instrument to the C major scale. Very impressive!
What is there to Say? very impressive. Even more so when you see it up close.
Oh…. What’s that… you don’t know what this is? Well its an “organ” installed in the Maritime building down in southern Manhattan, way down there at the tip. Mr. Byrne’s installed Pipe “flutes” in the building and rigged solenoids to knock & vibrate the building in key locations. Not just cool concept, It actually sounded good in the right hands.
