Carlotta - the museum database

S04 :: Rassel och klang

Object description

Instrument som ljuder med hela instrumentkroppen kallas idiofoner. Hit räknas t ex rasselinstrumenten som finns i denna monter. Rasselinstrument har använts i hela mänsklighetens historia. Det kan räcka med att plocka en frökapsel eller en kalebass för att skapa musik och dans. Instrumentet växer i naturen och rytmen finns inneboende i människan själv. Viljan att skapa ljud och dansa är stark.

Alla musikinstrument i denna monter tillhör gruppen idiofoner. Två penismusslor från Nya Guinea, tänkta att bäras under dansen finns också i montern.

Vid arbete i magasinen hittas ibland föremål som helt saknar föremålsnummer. Dessa föremål har man samlat i en egen inventariegrupp. Ibland vet man inte varifrån föremålet kommer eller vad det har använts till. Är plåtbiten i mitten ett musikinstrument?

Beskrivning - engelska

Instruments that make a sound with their entire body are called called idiophones. They include, for example, the rattle contained in this stand. Rattles have been used throughout human history. Picking up a seed-pod or gourd can be enough to make music and dance. The instrument grows in nature and the rhythm is inherent in humanity. The desire to create sounds and dance is strong.

All the musical instruments in this stand belong to the idiophone group. Two penis-mussels from New Guinea, to be worn when dancing, is also on display.

While working in the storerooms, objects are sometimes found entirely without catalogue numbers. These objects have been collected into a separate inventory group. Sometimes you don't know where the object is from or what it was used for. Is the small metal piece in the middle a musical instrument?

Important to know about the information in the online collection database

Users of the database are warned that some records may include language or terminology dating from the 19th and 20th centuries which depicted people in ways that are obsolete and/or offensive. We are conscious that the inclusion of such terminology is problematic. As an institution, we have chosen to include this historic information in our database because it is part of the documentation for the object, photograph, or archival item. Where known, objects associated with, or photographs depicting, ritual or ceremonial activity have been hidden in the publicly accessible database as there may be restrictions relating to the age, gender, initiation and ceremonial status or clan of the person who may see them. The database may also include the names of deceased persons, which could cause sadness or distress, particularly to relatives of these people.
