Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 368.7 Hz, 106 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
A watermelon is a big fruit that grows on a vine along the ground. Under its hard green rind is sweet red flesh dotted with black seeds, and it is about 92 percent water, which makes it a favorite on hot days. Watermelons were first grown in Africa thousands of years ago.
Tap it and a big knife chops the whole melon five times, then the six slices fan open like an accordion, showing the red flesh, the pale rind and the seeds, and fold shut again. Pick a whole melon, a wedge, or both in the Splash tab. With ✋ Hands-on on, pick up the slices one by one and fit them back together: brought close to its place, each one clicks in.
