Audio diary 04: Tuning fork excitation and bowed zither

My recent hunt for audio source led me to something I was inspired to do from watching one of my favourite bands, The Necks, live in concert last week. The drummer, Tony Buck, hit a crotales or similar resonant object and let it excite the skin of his drums, which created a lovely howling tone.

I got out the tuning fork, hit it and tried to let it excite various objects; the cymbal being the most expressive of the bunch.
Secondly I just really liked droning out by bowing near the tuning pegs of a zither. Wonderful squealing resonances.

Until next time. Cheers.
