Japanese artist Tanabe Chikuunsai IV produces twisting installations of woven bamboo that meld into their environment’s floor and ceiling. To bend the durable material he first moistens each piece to achieve the perfect curve, and often recycles the same pieces of bamboo for future installations. In 2017 the artist constructed a site-specific piece titled The Gate at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. The work used tiger bamboo that had been used ten times, including in a piece shown at the Museé Guimet in Paris. More

Also, we explain the fingering chart for the highest pitch (dai-kan-on) here. Take it easy. Please learn numbered notation and finger position to play shinobue bit by bit. Tsutsune Ryo-on Kan-on Daikan-on Learning Tools In this post, we explain the fingering chart for shinobue (uta type, 7 zholes). What is uta type? See also this article. Types of Shinobue *If you play 6 holes shinobue, please ignore finger hole of 1 (a farthest hole from a blow hole). 1. Tsutune Lowest pitch is called tsutsune. It sounds by closing all finger holes. It's hard to make sound and hardly played while playing shinobue. It's ok to just remember the name. 2. Ryo-on Lower octave is called ryo-on. Ryo-on is relatively easy to make sound than other octave. Remember that where to place fingers for ryo-on and kan-on. The numbered notation for ryo-on is written in Japanese character (kanji). On the other hand, the numbered notation for kan-on is written in Arabic numerals. 3. Kan-on 1 octave higher than ryo-on is called kan-on. Finger position for kan-on is same as ryo-on. However, making kan-on sounds is a bit difficult than ryo-on. Player needs to get a good embouchure for kan-on. 4. Daikan-on 1 octave higher than kan-on is called daikan-on (or daikan). It's hard to make sounds of it and finger position is different from ryo-on and kan-on. However, it's worth trying because the sharp and high pitch sound of daikan is one of the features of shinobue. Numbered notation is written in Arabic numerals but black circle is written above each number. 5. Learning Tools Download shinobue fingering chart below for your practice.

According to legend, when Lama Drukpa Kunley (called "the divine madman") visited Bhutan in the 15th century, the people urged the lama to perform a miracle. The saint demanded that he first be served a whole cow and a goat for lunch. He devoured these with relish and left only bones. After letting out a large and satisfied burp, he took the goat's head and stuck it onto the bones of the cow. And then with a snap of his fingers, he commanded the strange beast to rise up and graze on the mountainside. To the astonishment of the people the animal arose and ran up to the meadows to graze. This animal came to be known as the dong gyem tsey (takin) and to this day, these animals can be seen grazing on the mountainsides of Bhutan. The Takin continues to befuddle taxonomists. Unable to relate it to any other animal, they have put it in a category by itself: budorcas taxicolor.

Tot in de Vezel Atrium, Den Haag 2012 De Nederlandse kunstenaar Peter Gentenaar maakt objecten van vlas- en henneppulp, die hij uitgiet over dunne geraamtes van bamboe. Tijdens het drogen krimpt de papierpulp ongeveer 30% en vervormt het de bamboe-geraamtes. De kunstenaar stuurt dit proces, waarbij de uiteindelijke vorm ontstaat. Het resultaat is een barok en oneindig gevarieerd papieren kunstwerk. Dutch artist Peter Gentenaar makes objects in flax and hemp pulp, poured out on flat skeletons of bamboo slats. During the drying of the pulp, the paper-pulp shrinks about 30% and deforms the slat-skeletons. The artist intervenes and guides the constructions into their final three-dimensional form. The result is a highly ornamental paper artwork in an unlimited multitude of shapes and sizes.
