A desk fan cools you by moving air: its angled blades push air forward as they spin, and moving air carries heat and sweat away from your skin faster.

Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 691.0 Hz, 81 cents sharp of E5, 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
A desk fan cools you by moving air: its angled blades push air forward as they spin, and moving air carries heat and sweat away from your skin faster. A fan does not make the air colder; it only makes you feel cooler.
This fan starts on, spinning and swinging slowly from side to side. Tap it to switch it off, and the blades slow to a stop; tap again to switch it on. In the Splash tab, turn the swing on or off and pick its color. With ✋ Hands-on on, push the fan's head up or down to tilt it on its stiff hinge; it stays where you leave it.
