uuuueeeeeeeeehhhhhh.... auuuuuuueee.. heh cough* oh Hi there! I was just trying out overtone singing. yeah is fun lol. I find this vocal sound rather intriguing at the same time unusually entertaining.. Khusugtun Overtone Singer This singing technique is believed to have originated from Mongolia, dated back in the period of Genghis Khan. Traditional art of Mongolian overtone throat singing is often coupled with the sound of horse head fiddle. The Mongolians refer this throat singing technique as hoomii or khoomii. By dexterously controlling the lips muscles, larynx, pharynx and the air flow (pressure), one is capable of producing harmonic partials. Simply put it as they can produce two different notes simultaneously. Is something like a bagpipe or hulusi, a sustaining sound of a drone accompanied by the sound of a chanter.

Yeah currently Im busy working on this Durian. I am using Google sketch up..Quite fun actually. 31/12/12 Update : done with the modelling few days ago still editing the animation for Mr Durian..  

Damn! the Shuttle bus service to IMM has changed. The pick up and drop off point is now located at JCube instead of Jurong East MRT station. The operation time for the shuttle services is 10.30am - 10.30pm daily. 5 minutes interval! I've Wasted 15 minutes here waiting for the bus.. Why because I saw a few people there waiting.. even though there are notices indicating the bus has been redirected to Jcube . I shall now walk myself there. To those going to IMM note that the shuttle service pickup pt has now changed to JCube (In front of Macdonald).

Lyre Harp  So what is this Aeolian Wind harp? I only know what is korean's bibimbap  Aeolian harp is named after Greek God Aeolus, the god keeper of wind. No one is suppose to play this harp, thy Aeolus will play it for you. What I meant is let the wind play the harp for you. This is an old instrument and it became very popular during the romantic period. Even Robert Schumann referenced one of Chopins' Etude as Aeolian Harp (Etude Op. 25, No.1). Lets hear how the harp sound before we move on to the physics of how it works.

Psy's Gangnam Style On friday 21st Dec Gangnam Style had hit 1 billion views on youtube. He has yet again make another mark on music history. I was walking around the mall yesterday, strangely indeed people never get tired of Gangnam Style.. MTV was being played on the TV displays while the Uncles Aunties & Children have their eyes glued to the monitor screen.. what an interesting sight. Even Psy himself cant explain the exact reason to why Gangnam Style is so appealing . And is it possible for him to replicate this phenomenon nobody knows?
