Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 1174.9 Hz, 100 cents flat of E♭6, the nearest tine on the comb. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

About it
Building bricks are small plastic blocks with round studs on top that press into tubes underneath the next brick, so they hold together firmly and can be pulled apart again. With enough of them you can build almost anything, and even six ordinary bricks can be stacked together in hundreds of millions of different ways.
Here eighteen bricks lie spread out on the table. Drag one to pick it up and hold it over another: it turns square and lines up with the studs, and clicks on when you let go, so you can build your own. Each tap pops the last model apart and builds a new one in the middle, brick by brick from the bottom up, each clicking into place: a tower, a bridge, stairs, a dog or a tree. Pick a set of colors in the Splash tab.
