Re: [microsound] tuvan throat singers/sounding stones

[Tim Kugel <guitardo@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

thanks everyone! amazing response of course

the sounding stones are placed in running streams and then laboriously
"tuned" - tuning actually the water and stone in combination

this is a hobby for gardeners I was told....

I wish I could do this with pedals, filters, CPU's etc. - put them in a
continuous overwhelming torrent random "current" of sound, and filter tiny
contours daily

you must listen so carefully to hear your own notes
