Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 1145.3 Hz, 144 cents flat of E♭6, 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
Origami is the Japanese art of folding a single square of paper into a shape, without cutting or gluing. The crane is its most famous model, folded with a long neck, a pointed tail and wide wings. In Japan, a string of a thousand folded cranes is a traditional wish for good health and for peace.
Tap it to flap its wings: they beat up and down a few times, as a real crane's do. Some paper cranes are folded so that the wings really flap when you pull the tail. Pick the color of the paper in the Splash tab.
