Day 6:  Harp

I don’t have a harp, so I controlled my character in-game to play the harp for today’s practice instead.

The harp is a stringed musical instrument that has a number of individual strings running at an angle to its soundboard; the strings are plucked with the fingers. Harps can be made and played in various ways, standing or sitting and in orchestras or concerts. Its most common form is triangular in shape and made of wood. Some have multiple rows of strings and pedal attachments.

  1. This is so interesting! Why did you chose this as your 6th instrument? I love thinking about how this game becomes the instrument or the medium through which you are playing the music. It seems like it might make you feel a little bit separate from it — was that your experience? If so, what other degrees of separation could you introduce?
