From tapping your pen on your desk to playing drums on empty paint tins to old-fashioned beatboxing, it's never been true that you need a dedicated musical instrument to make music.
For this bounty, we'd love to see you all run with this. Film a short clip of yourself playing any music on anything other than a 'proper' instrument (here is an excellent example). We'll need at least ten seconds to recognise the melody, but given that it can be as long or short as you like. It can be a known song or it can be your own work, and you can use anything apart from a recognisable musical instrument.
The best seven submissions get $5 apiece. Let's get creative!
Task: Film a piece of music without using a recognisable musical instrument
Format: Original video, at least ten seconds
