A glassblower’s weapon of choice has been a simple blowpipe over 2,000 years now. It’s a tried and true device. But that doesn’t mean there’s no room to jazz it up a little, and that’s exactly what “Strange Symphony” does.
A collaboration between designer Philpp Weber and glassblower Christophe Genard, Strange Symphony takes the time-tested blowpipe and bolts it on to a modern trumpet’s guts, allowing its user to “improvise” each piece of glass. Each key on the trumpet directs air out a different hole on the device’s business end, and produces some unusual results.
