How to Make Commander Keen Sounds!
I was tapping my pencils around in class one day, and the sound it made
reminded me of Commander Keen 1! Try it and tell me what you think!!
Materials you will need:
1 ball point pen (Bic works the best)
1 pencil
1 table
- Hold the pen by the end in your right hand
- Hold the pencil by the end in your left hand
- Strike the pen on the edge of the table (the pen should be struck about 1/3 or
the way down its length)
- Strike the pencil the same way
- Quickly repeat steps 3 and 4, try alternating where you hit the pen, too!
This sound is best produced at school where you will have all the materials
you need... Plus, it bugs the heck outta the teachers, and soon everyone in
the class starts doing it!
