Its note

Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 369.9 Hz, 100 cents flat of G4, 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

Decorating eggs with bright patterns is a spring tradition in many countries, especially at Easter. In Ukraine and nearby lands, painted eggs called pysanky are made by drawing lines in melted wax, dipping the egg in dye, and repeating with darker colors; the wax keeps each color where it was drawn.

Tap it to spin it. Pick a folk, striped, dotted, zigzag, flower or star pattern and its two colors in the Splash tab. Try spinning a real hard-boiled egg: it spins smoothly, while a raw one wobbles and stops, because the runny inside sloshes. With ✋ Hands-on on, flick it sideways: it spins on its end, slows, and wobbles as it slows until it stops.
