037. Helium box
A Story about beatbox, helium, mouth, vocals, boxes, vibration and Russia (Helium_Beatbox - Beatboxing calms the baby down)
This week’s inspiration comes from an unusual way to calm a baby—with the art of the human beatbox!
Listen closely to Helium in his kitchen in Russia, as he creates a vocal masterpiece. Watch how each sound vibrates from his mouth and notice how the sounds change with different facial movements. Can you create your own beatbox using just your voicebox?
This week’s inspiration words are:
