Note: It's important that you write a persuasive and informative ending to this blog post. The Voxman is a new form of synthesizer that is able to sound like any instrument, including violin, piano, trumpet and saxophone. Best of all it can be created using nothing but paper and basic household items such as cardboard tubes or aluminium cans! Because the Voxman requires no electric power source the musician can use it anywhere so long as they have access to paper, glue and safety googles. The Voxman can be used to augment a bands existing sound or as a solo instrument. This blog will walk you through the steps needed to create your own, from materials to design and possible applications for this new form of musical expression. 1. Buy a roll of 20" wide masking tape at your local home improvement centre. 2. Cut the tape into 1" strips with a sharp pair of scissors or a razor blade in order to create small "line speakers." You will need between 72 and 108 depending on the size of your paper tubes. Other sizes will work but they may not have the same tonal quality as 20" versions do in smaller versions. 3. Cut out 8" circles from white cardstock. The diameter of the circles does not need to be perfect and the thicker and more curved the better. 4. Fold a strip of masking tape into a "U" shape and glue it to one side of the paper circle with a tiny dab of superglue. 5. Glue on another circle where the first one was glued as shown in the diagram. 6. Once they are glued together, wrap masking tape around them that is wide enough so they do not fall apart when unfolded. 7. Simply unfold them and you now have a portable tube trumpet! 8. To create the body of the voxman simply glue on paper to the top of the trumpet you have created. You can glue any paper, cardstock or even small strips of tissue paper to your design. 9. To make eyes simply cut two small circles from black construction paper and glue them onto a pair of safety glasses. 10. Using a few pieces of tape on any side of the voxman you can easily attach it to various items for display or use. 11. To play simply put your lips around the end that is open and blow into one end. 12. Some optional additions to your design are paper designs (i.e. flowers, buttons, etc.) or even completing the look with a coloured "can" voxman!
