Audio diary 05: Accidental PVC pipe diddly bow

I've been meaning to experiment with building homemade wind harps for the purpose of taking them out in the field and recording it in various settings, so I begun building something out of materials I had at home.
I found a PVC sewer pipe, got sidetracked and realised I had built a very shoddy diddly bow.

The PVC pipe is not stiff enough and the string tension bends it, which means I can adjust the tension while bowing it, changing the pitch and timbre.

Not at all what I intended to do, but great fun nonetheless.

If you need shoddy cello imitations, I'm here.
