Its note

Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 428.2 Hz, 47 cents flat of A4. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

About it

A pagoda is a tower of many roofs, one above the other, built at Buddhist temples across China, Korea, Japan and much of Asia. The idea came from the stupa, a mound that held holy relics in ancient India. Tall wooden pagodas in Japan have stood through many earthquakes for centuries, partly thanks to a great central pillar that helps them sway without falling.

Tap it: wind chimes at the corners of every roof swing, one tier after another, and two stone lanterns by the path light up while the doors glow. Pick the color of the timber in the Splash tab.
