Diddly bow and looper

Audio diary 07: Diddly bow and a looper.

A very crude diddly bow made from a broom handle, psaltry string and bits and pieces. Recorded by contact mic (outside the frame) and processed with a 4-track looper and FX unit designed and built by a friend. The endless overdubbing allows me to explore some dense overtonal textures, which I adore.

Build your own diddly bow.
