Its note

Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 359.4 Hz, 50 cents sharp of F4. 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 knock it into a spin. Pick its label under Look in the Splash tab.

About it

A tin can is a steel can with a thin coat of tin that keeps it from rusting. Food is sealed inside and heated to kill germs, so it stays good for years. Cans were invented in the early 1800s, but a handy can opener came only about 50 years later; before that, people used a hammer and chisel.

Tap it to knock it onto its bottom rim: it spins around on the rim faster and faster, like a coin settling, and drops flat with a clank. Under Look in the Splash tab, pick a peaches label, a tomatoes label, plain metal or the original scan.
