Ken,
Recently you said something about desiring a Tibetan long horn for its sound
effect.   You might be able to get that effect architecturally.

Last night on History Channel there was a very interesting program about the
nature of sound at various stone age architectural sites.   The premise
being studied was that many places may have been created or modified
architecturally to influence their soundscape and sonic effects.   The
program included playing of a Bronze Age horn,and that made me think of you.
If this was an old repeat program you know of but I just never caught
before, well, ho hum.   But, if you didn't see it and are interested, I
taped it and can send you a copy if you wish.   As a musician/architect, the
correlation between the architectural design, spacial and surface treatments
and the resulting sonic effects was pretty intriguing, but then, I can't
help being close to China.
