If u wet your hand and rub the thin metal shelf part you can get different resonant frequencies and notes/pitches. I remember playing hot cross buns on one as a kid that would fit in the corner of a shower so it had different length wires.
Love how her mind works , of course you keep it . I'm reminded of the trouble I'd bring upon me for trying out sounds in various work places in my younger years , some industrial spaces are aural gold mines ,(sadly under appreciated .0
I had a long time without listening to you Glennie, I didn't know you were on youtube. It is always wonderful to get closer to your art. Greetings from Venezuela.
Sounds like a cross between a cable car and a lift or elevator. Interesting. My mum has a massive heated towel rail radiator just inside her kitchen door. If there were no towels or smalls there, I'd play that, since all the bars or rungs there were slightly different frequencies. I'd run my hands or metalic objects from said kitchen up and down it. I also accidentally found out supermarket trolleys make very interesting ascending frequency noises when my mum lifted her handbag and the metal buckle on the strap slid sideways along the wire sides of the trolley. I also did the same thing with the racks from inside my mum's old cooker oven. They made the best resonating kind of sounds in our house... until the kitchen was knocked through and rebuilt and mum got the afore-mentioned towel rail radiator which resonated big time. The oven in my current house has two wire racks which resonate a lot, like my mum's ole oven but one. I love anything which resonates, hence my collection of bells.
I am reading a chapter in my book about you, it is written that you can't hear and you are a musician, how can this be possible but I read a poem that those who try never fail, can you reply to me? You have inspired everyone please reply me
