Ryan Janzen, University of Toronto, is coming next week with the Hydraulophone!!! After our first conversations with Steve Mann, the inventor of the water organ, in 2008, and several meetings, the instrument is getting closer to our tanks. Ryan Janzen, Steve's assistent, is doing a Talk on Wednesday, June 4 at 3 pm at Godsbanen. The subject is "Music Composition and Engineering for the Human Sensory Experience".

Laboratory

So now we are through the first week of our laboratory. Slowly getting progress. One tends to forget how many issues there are in this project. New challenges every day! But we are continuesly improving. 

Bubbles!

Is this the answer of our prayers? We suffered major problems with micro bubbles covering everything, causing a dampening of sound. With the result that for example a gong suddenly only says "dok" instead of "goooonnnnggg".
But now we found this micro bubble eliminator! So bubbles - tremble!

Closing up to lab!

We are coming very close to our Laboratory starting in Monday! Lots of things to be tried out. New instruments, including our electromagnetic harp, hydraulophone, singing bowls. And I just ordered two pistol shrimps, that are able to snap their claws and produce a bang of 160db! Lets see if they can be a part of the show!
