The recorder is either one of the worst instruments of all
time or one of the best implements in psychological
warfare. It really depends upon your perspective. It is
usually deployed by irregular forces of 8 year olds in their
ongoing fight for self-determination against the controlling
faction
known as "parents". They have so many
advantages: they are robust, portable, cheap*, readily
hidden and are practically indefensible. They are best used
when blown really very hard to get a sort of discordant
screechy polytone.
They have one issue however, that the child blowing the
instrument has to take a breath occasionally. This gives
hope to the enemy.
I propose that a bag be constructed, and this be fed by the
child's regular blowing action. A pipe from bag to recorder
will allow continuous screeching polytones to menace the
psyche of the pesky adults with their bourgeois late
bedtimes and unlimited access to the treat jar.
*often supplied by the enemy..
Weapon. Definitely a weapon

Having, relatively recently, heard a recorder played
by an expert. I have to conclude that the actual
weapon involved is 8 year old children, who's
deployment should probably be banned by the
Geneva Conventions. |

How do you get the child into the bag? |

Open the bag, place the child inside. The child is now
in the bag. |

Excellent. All that then remains is to make the bag/recorder assemby
completely airtight. |

And thus is progress made. [+] |
