Drumggling

Submitted by Seanbad on Mon, 2008-11-10 21:28.

For my second creative project I tried to combine my skills in hand drumming with my very mediocre skills in juggling, which I hereby term “drumggling”.

It was quite challenging, but it made me realise how it’s possible to join together two seemingly unrelated skills. I wish that I had been able to push it further, but it’s a starting point. Hope you enjoy it.

I agree! Well done.

It looked easy until the “happy accidents” part gave away that it must have taken a while to put it all together. Fun to watch. Bet you had fun too. Yes?
Cheers :)

Thanks Debbie :)

Yes it was very fun to work on, but it was *slightly* less fun to keep getting up and collect the balls after constantly dropping them.

The greatest challenge was making sure that it was still considered “drumming” (that it kept a steady beat). It’s one thing to catch the balls, but to throw and catch them in a steady rhythm is…difficult. Needless to say I appreciate Michael Moschen’s work a lot more after attempting this!
