It was a rainy Thursday night in St. Petersburg, while at a reception at the Cobb Gallery (which has entrance shared with the Athletic Complex Annex) waiting for the presentation. Tai and friend decided to demonstrate Brian Ransom's instrument...successfully I might add.
It makes lovely soft sounds, depending upon which pipe you blow into, of course.
Samantha watched while Brian filled his "flute-like" instrument with some water...which is instrumental in being able to play these gorgeous forms. Later I heard the sounds which reminded me of whale songs. (Incidentally try finding this link to hear all about a woman who records sounds of whales and elephants...here)
