Everything makes a noise when struck with something else.
The idea is to print unto certain products the exact note
that they will create when suspended and tapped with a
small percussion hammer.
Collect, assemble and learn to play your own musical
instrument, courtesy of the domestic products
that surround
you.

I don't know if you get a "note" when striking a croissant with a hammer, but you're welcome to try on this one (( |

<pedant> Except in a small subset of musical systems, A# and Bb are different pitche(r)s. </pedant> |
|
| |
A# and Bb are only different on paper. |
|

OK, if we're going to get pedantic, despite what my parents used to maintain, a musical instrument is more than something that just makes a noise. |
|
| |
Having said that, I used to know someone who was so musical he could have got a tune out of a dead fish. |

[Jscotty]//A# and Bb are only different on paper// Only in 12-equal temperament and some other compromised tunings. You're living in the 20th century, man! |

[xenzag] I like the phrase //print unto//. |

Forger's motto: "Print unto Caesar" |

I don't hear a note when I hit this sponge. |

//where did B# and E# go anyway ?// |
|
| |
I started to answer this, but my annotation was becoming an essay (is Vernon a verb yet ;-)). B# and E# are useful names in certain (rare) contexts, but are omitted from the simplified theory taught at school. The distinction between, eg, B# and C relates to the musical context - what function the note has relative to other notes. In some systems B# is the same pitch as C, but in others it isn't. |

If I get that essay finished, I'll post a link to it. |

egbert - what is your (parent's) definition of a musical
instrument? - just curious. I like the idea of playing a dead
fish - a thousand fish puns then follow, oh no not again!! (
see fishy fishnets for them all, before putting any more
up) |

Their opinion was that the ones I listened to were a Bb##### noise. |
|
| |
Can a pin drop in d minor? |
|
| |
only if it produces at least 2 notes. |
