Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 494.7 Hz, 97 cents flat of C5, 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.

How to play
Tap it to rock it; drag to turn it.
About it
A plush monkey in a striped sweater, captured from photos and drawn with soft splats. Fuzzy fabric is hard to scan because each loop of yarn casts its own tiny shadow, so the doll is a good test of how well splats can show soft materials.
Tap it and the monkey rocks on its cloth, round and round, and settles. Drag to circle it and look at the nap of the fur, the stitched face and the curled tail.
