Musician Collaborates with Faulty Plumbing

As makers, adversity can sometimes be our greatest collaborator, for instance, Polish violinist Jacek Dzwonowski could never have created this beautiful composition if he had not been forced to deal with the peculiar sounds of faulty water pipes. His composition is basically the plumbing equivalent of circuit bending, where the most interesting sounds are often created by exploiting the idiosyncrasies of malfunctioning electronics, and it’s a great reminder that playing with broken things can sometimes lead to the best results!
