Water fountain that's a highly expressive musical instrument. You play it by blocking the water jets in various ways, which forces the hydraulic fluid (water) into the sound-producing mechanism in various ways. It works alot like a pipe organ, except that it uses water instead of air. See splashtones.com
The passive droning it makes when nobody is playing it is like less ominous monolith music from 2001 A Space Odyssey.
if only the Water tribe had this
you probably dont give a shit but if you're bored like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all of the latest movies on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my girlfriend for the last couple of days :)
@Adrian Leandro yea, have been watching on InstaFlixxer for since december myself :D
Lol
this is the hidden gem on youtube
@EBE246 Hydraulis is simply an air organ that uses water as a source of power. Hydraulis is played by pressing wooden keys that allow air into organ pipes. Hydraulophone is a new invention, recently patented in multiple countries. Hydraulophone is played by pressing water jets rather than wooden keys. Hydraulophone is not an aerophone or idiophone or chordophone or membranophone; its in a newly created category of musical instruments.
Hello. May I ask how does a hydraulaphone work?
@@brenwenmin Check out some of the research papers, scholar.google.ca/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=hydraulophone
Wow! Thanks for the quick reply!
The largest of the hydraulophones shown in the video (which is actually the world's largest hydraulophone) is at the Ontario Science Centre, 770 Don Mills Road, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Coming in here in 2021 to see that in 2006 when this video was released 480p was considered "High resolution" according to the description
This is awesome.
woah 480p was high res back then
I just saw a article about "the world's first musical instrument played by flowing water".... Obviously they lied. Because.....
Hello from 2020!
When was THAT installed?... I didn't realize how long it's been since I've visited the ol' Science Centre. Perhaps I'll go check it out...
Wow, Amazing!
Hello. Do you know what song is the guy playing 0:27 to 0:35?
is that drone actually comes from those pipes?
Hello there, UA-cam recommendation travelers. How'd you going?
Yo this plumber needs to go back to trade school
keren dan unik sekali ini instrument musik nya
Where is this located?!?!?!
I'd have to wear a wet suit to play that thing.
is the background drone a song or is it the instrument? If it is a song what's it called?
The background drone comes from the instrument. It is set by the tuning screws or valves, and can be set to any chord desired. Typically the drone is set to a nice combination of notes such as A, C, E, ... (a-minor) so it is not to dissonant. Also the drone helps notes respond faster so it is often set so every note sounds just a little bit at all times, equally, so all notes drone equally but very faintly. This gives fast response when playing. So it is a matter of personal taste. Ideally there is a handwheel at the end of the instrument that sets the overall reservoir flow or water supply manifold or water exhaust manifold appropriately and it is nice to be able to set the "during drone" while playing, depending on the piece to be played. I like to have a "compass drone" (that's what we call it when all the notes in the compass of notes being played are sounded) very faintly happening during the piece I'm playing.
@@hydraulist Awesome... really cool instrument. Are there any longer high quality recordings of the drone? Also thanks for the speedy response I was not even expecting to get one on such an old video
is the song played anything specific? i kinda want to hear it clearer lol
