Not until now. Interesting concept, then again all manner of found objects have been used to create music.

I once saw a grand piano played with a dead fish but I don't recall what scale it was in. Not funny I know but the owners of the Steinway weren't amused either.

what did playing the scales sound like?

did it make you flounder all over the plaice?

did you bream as it skated over the keys?

just another mullet headed grouper falling off his perch....

I think it is something rather visual, or a very original way
to obtain conventional sounds.Nice for a Vimeo video personal promotion..and it really works !
