Pyramids of Giza

Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 449.3 Hz, 36 cents sharp of A4. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

Tap it: a tiny flying saucer beams up a camel made of sand.

The Pyramids of Giza stand at the edge of the desert near Cairo, in Egypt. They were built about 4,500 years ago as tombs for three kings, or pharaohs: Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure. The Great Pyramid of Khufu was first about 146 meters (481 feet) tall, and for almost 4,000 years it was the tallest building in the world. It is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still standing.

Tap it for a playful visitor: a tiny flying saucer glides in and switches on its beam, sand streams up into the shape of a camel, which floats up into the saucer, and the saucer wobbles happily and zips away.
