Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 392.5 Hz, right on G4. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

About it
A diya is a small clay lamp that holds oil or butter and a cotton wick. Rows of diyas are lit for Diwali, the festival of lights celebrated by Hindus, Sikhs and Jains, to welcome light and good fortune. Homes are also decorated with rangoli, bright patterns of colored powder or flowers on the floor.
This diya sits on a rangoli. Tap it and its flame flares and grows, and eight small diyas around the pattern light one after another and stay lit. Tap again to put them out. In the Splash tab, set the flame's size or use Blow to make it dip; this is a button, not microphone input.
