Its note

Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 1145.1 Hz, 44 cents flat of D6. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

About it

A candy cane is a stick of hard peppermint candy bent into a hook, with red and white stripes, and it is often hung on trees in the Christmas season. The stripes are made by twisting ropes of red and white candy together while they are warm and soft.

Tap it and each cane twists, the hook turning and the stripes winding tighter, until it snaps with a crack. The top half springs clear, sugar chips fly, then the halves come back together and mend with a glint. Pick a pair with a bow or a single cane, and the stripe color, in the Splash tab. With ✋ Hands-on on, pull the hook: the cane bends a little, then snaps in two with a crack, and you can pick up the broken piece; reset mends it.
