Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 389.3 Hz, 12 cents flat of 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 fossil tooth of the giant shark megalodon (Otodus megalodon), scanned and drawn with splats. Megalodon lived from about 23 to 3.6 million years ago and may have grown to fifteen meters or more. Sharks shed their teeth all their lives, so fossil teeth are much more common than any other part of them.
