Hi Nathan, As thomas points out, the bodhran is extremely flexible in the pitching possibilities. The amount of damping you apply with your hand is completely...
Weird! I just tried it. I'm guessing it's a magnetic pulse pinging the steel cookie sheet. That's just weird. OK, I just put duct tape over the flash to prove...
Could be (?) the heat rather than the light, the tape would also stop that. A sudden burst of heat might make a small area of the sheet expand quickly, which...

Well I am guessing (from others medical experiments with flash units) that there is going to be a big magnetic pulse when a flash unit goes off- (they often...
aha!...I suspect that this effect is caused by the displacement of air molecules as a result of the quick pulse of thermal radiation, not magnetism nor light...
great idea Chi. I'd think that this would work, depending on the mass of the skin (the lower the mass density, the higher chances for audible result). You...
Now I like the heat idea. The light and IR gets absorbed and heats up a thin surface layer of the pan, it expands and makes the sheet bend. How about shiny vs....
