Brilliantly absurd. I was just trying to imagine being at a dinner party, and one of my friends blowing an enchanting song through a broccoli floret. HA! It must be hard to carve the whistling part. I did it out of clay before, and you got to get it juuust right.
maybe if more of the japanese were making and playing beautiful broccoli-like orcanias the fishermen would be so busy making awesome music they wouldn't be out hunting whales and slaughtering dolphins.
You know, it sounded a lot better than I thought it would. I clicked on the video expecting to hear some sort of kazoo-like sound, but that actually mimicked a recorder quite well.
I've listened to a couple of his other vegetable creations and the broccoli definitely has the best sound -- but they're all amazing. The great thing about it is that it really is musical.
my point is if they were playing broccoli orcanias/flutes then there'd be no time to kill endangered whales and slaughter dolphins. the comment was directed towards the fishermen not the japanese people as a whole. it was meant to be in a similar vain as "make love not war"......
No, you're ignorant. The reasoning for bringing up that point makes you look like a green peace or peta drone. Why don't you go make a "save the animals" poster and feebly attempt to save the world.
You still sound the most ignorant. You're a disgrace to people who care about animals and the environment. It's people like you who make even laid back treehuggers like myself cringe.
kid icarus: take note that no one will ever click those links, most people aren't really worried that the orientals are hungry enough to hunt whales, its not like they have enough land to farm on.
Oh, and how in the hell did you see guy playing broccoli and think whales? oh thats right, you didn't, you saw an oriental guy and immediately stereotyped him as whale killer... wow, racist tree hugger, hug the tree, not the human
also take note: you just got told by a 13 year old
I thought that this was great! Wonder how long it took him to get it in tune.
The music was nice, but it's kind of obscene-looking to watch him play it. I think it's the look in his eyes.
It's the shape and holes that matter more than the material, if you're just building a simple recorder.
Nifty.
But seriously, if you guys like this, check out the Vienna Vegetable Orchestra.
you've obviously not been reading a lot of the comments in various postings.

(I'm not coming back to see if anyone decided to reply to me. I've said all that I need to say.)
