What are these devices called ?

There are “instruments” made for the same purpose as Windchimes, but instead of being dangly bits hanging down are, I believe, made into horns; or have strings, both of which are activated by the wind, and sound musical notes.

There might be, though I’m less sure on this, similar devices activated by wave action, tubes and bells and suchlike.

I have tried to gather information about these because my interest is piqued by them.

But my big stumbling point is that every name that I’ve thought might be appropriate to them Wikis up orchestral instruments or suchlike.

Surely SOMEONE must know what they’re called ?

Wind organ?

Only thing I can think of is an Aeolian Wind Harp.

The ones activated by the sea are wave organs. Here’s one playing in Zadar, Croatia.

Aeolian harp?

Sonic sculptures?

Aha! I wanted to build one of these in my yard but couldn’t remember what they were called. Now all I have to do is scavenge some parts!

What kind of screwdriver would you use to build one of those things?

Thanks to everyone !

Ignorance fought yet again, I totally recommend **Capt Ridleys ** link to the wave organ.

Its incredible.
