Daily tidbit for May 14

Page 6: aeolian harp (from Aeolus), musical instrument, popular from c1600-1900, consisting of a box over which are stretched a number of strings of equal length and different thicknesses, tuned in unison. Placed outdoors or on a window ledge, the strings are vibrated by the wind, their varying thicknesses creating different harmonics.

Actually, yes, now I want one when before I didn't know they existed. lol
 
I think I made one of these out of a kleenex box when I was a kid ;)
 
Yep. Now I want one. Didn't know such a thing even existed before, and now I want one.
 
The lover of Early Victorian literature in me is saying no, but the folk artist/lover of all things harp in me is saying yes.
