Its note

Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 400.8 Hz, 38 cents sharp of G4. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

How to play

Tap her to make her look round; drag to turn her.

About it

The head and shoulders of a lioness of the extinct cave lion kind, captured from photos of a life-size model and drawn with splats. Cave lions lived in Europe and Asia in the Ice Age and were larger than lions today. Cave paintings show them without manes.

Tap her and she looks one way, then the other, then back. Drag to circle it and look at the whiskers, the fur and the watching eyes.
