Bart Hopkin is a creative organologist, ethnomusicologist, musical instrument inventor, writer, editor, and the publisher of [[EMI]] magazine. He is a prolific maker and one of the most significant contributors to the current environment of idiosyncratic musical instruments as a genre. This page is very incomplete and represents what will be one of the largest pages on this wiki. Bart Hopkin has significant contributions and connections to many other makers on this wiki. Expect this page to be one of the longest and most complex pages. ===Instruments=== ==Moe' Series== ==Lamellophones== ===EMI Magazine=== ===Books=== ==Musical Instrument Design== 1996, See Sharp Press \\ ==Gravikords, Whirlies and Pyrophones.== Book & CD, Orange, Connecticut: Ellipsis Arts. #3530, 1998 \\ ==Making Musical Instruments with Kids== See Sharp Press \\ ==Slap Tubes and other plosive Aerophones== Made in collaboration with [[Philip Dadson]] Published through Experimental Musical Instruments \\ ==Getting a Bigger Sound== Bart Hopkin with Robert Cain and Jason Lollar \\ ==Making Marimbas and Other Bar Percussion Instruments== Bart Hopkin and [[Carl Dean]] with Christopher Banta \\ Published through Experimental Musical Instruments ==Wind Chimes, Design and Construction== published through Experimental Musical Instruments \\ ==Funny Noises for the Connoisseur== Book and audio CD – Bart Hopkin with Ray Brunelle and Vincent Nicastro \\ ==Air Columns and Tone Holes: Principles for Wind== Published through Experimental Musical Instruments \\ ==Nice Noise== Bart Hopkin and [[Yuri Landman]], 72 pgs, 2012, Published through Experimental Musical Instruments \\ ===Discography=== INSTUMENTARIUM HOPKINIS, Bart Hopkin Plays Invented Instruments, 2002 \\ AFTER SEVEN YEARS, Guitar Music from Bart Hopkin, 2003 \\ BOSSAS, BALLADS, AND BLUES, Dale Polissar, clarinet, and Bart Hopkin, guitar, 2004 \\ 21 WAYS OF LOOKING AT THINGS, Sound Instruments Designed by Bart Hopkin, 2007 \\ MELANGE, Dale Polissar, clarinet, and Bart Hopkin, guitar, 2009 \\ ===Essays=== ICICLES AND MORE \\ SCHMEARY GLISSARY \\ SLOPPINESS \\ ANIMATIONS \\ ADDITIONAL NOTES PERTAINING TO HOMEMADE WOODWIND MAKING \\ MORE ‘MOE \\ FORCED VIBRATION \\ NAMES AND APPEARANCES \\ SORRY-ASS ORGAN \\ THE WINDOW OF AUDIBILITY \\ IMPEDANCE \\ INSTRUMENTARIUM HOPKINIS SAMPLE LIBRARIES \\ PALINDROMES \\ EVERYONE WANTS BEACH-FRONT REAL ESTATE \\ ELASTIC STRINGS \\ AGITATION PIPES \\ MUSICAL INSTRUMENT CATEGORIZATION SYSTEMS \\ ADVENTURES IN FRICTION \\ FUNDAMENTAL, HARMONICS, OVERTONES, PARTIALS, MODES \\ ALUMINUM DISK GONGS (Article #2) \\ ALUMINUM DISK GONGS (Article #1) \\ ALTERNATIVES FOR PITCH CONTROL IN WIND INSTRUMENTS \\ PLAY HERE \\ SOUNDS AND SILENCE \\ ENGRAVINGS OF EARLY ACOUSTICAL APPARATUS \\ NORTH-SOUTH/EAST-WEST CHIMES \\ MASTERY VS.
