This is what my "object"/percussion setup in BWO usually looks like: Microphone, Kaoss Pad, 3 Jews Harps, Stylophone, Vibrator, Masking Tape, Bird Calls, Kalimba, Saxoflute, Hotel Bell, Balloons, Chopsticks, Ratchets, Popcorn Shaker, and assorted metal percussion. The mask, wind-up teeth, and dinosaur cookie cutter are all visual cues which, when selected, move the improvised music forward into a new direction.

A visit to the National Trust property of Snowshill Manor in the Cotswolds / Gloucestershire.
Snowshill Manor is a National Trust property located in the village of Snowshill, Gloucestershire, United Kingdom. It is a sixteenth century country house, best known for its twentieth century owner, Charles Paget Wade, an eccentric man who amassed an enormous collection of objects that interested him. He gave the property to the National Trust in 1951, and his collection is still housed there.
The property is located in Snowshill. It is a typical Cotswold manor house, made from local stone; the main part of the house dates from the 16th century. It is a Grade II* listed building, having been so designated since 4 July 1960. Also listed are the brewhouse, the dovecote, some of the garden buildings, the wall and gate-piers, and the group of four Manor Cottages.
Snowshill Manor was given to Winchcombe Abbey in 821 by King Coenwulf of Mercia. Two hundred and sixty four years later, the village and Manor were listed in the Domesday Book (1085) as Snawesille, property of the Abbey of Saint Mary of Winchcombe. The Manor remained the property of the Abbey until the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1539 when it was confiscated by King Henry VIII, who included the Manor in his dowry to his last queen, Catherine Parr, in 1543.
The earliest surviving part of the Manor, the rooms named and now known as Dragon, Nadir, Ann's, Music and Seraphim by Charles Paget Wade, was built around 1550 and it is probable that this section of the Manor was joined to a contemporaneous building to the south, which was later demolished. In the 1600s the Manor was again extended southwards and attic rooms added. In the early part of the 18th century the house was owned by one William Sambach, who added extra rooms on the south-west corner in about 1720. He also added a new main door in the south front, placing the Sambach coat of arms in the pediment above it, which is now the main entrance to the house. After several further changes of owner, John Small of Clapham took over the property, being the first of a series of absentee landlords: for the next 150 years the house was occupied by tenant farmers, until its purchase in 1919 by Charles Paget Wade.
Wade was an architect, artist-craftsman, collector, poet and heir to the family fortune. He restored the property, living in the small cottage in the garden and using the Manor house as a home for his collection of objects. By the time of his death he had amassed over 22,000 objects. He gave the property and the contents of this collection to the National Trust in 1951.
The house contains an eclectic collection of thousands of objects, gathered over the years by Charles Paget Wade, whose motto was "Let nothing perish". The collection includes toys, Samurai armour, musical instruments, and clocks. Today, the main attraction of the house is perhaps the display of Wade's collection. From 1900 until 1951, when he gave the Manor to the National Trust, Wade amassed an enormous and eclectic collection of objects reflecting his interest in craftsmanship. The objects in the collection include 26 suits of Japanese samurai armour dating from the 17th and 19th centuries, bicycles, toys, musical instruments, and more.

The following is from our second last lecture for physiology. The disorder is called Synaesthesia, however in this branch 'object personality', the patient views things/numbers etc. w/ certain characteristics. In this example, the person is describing the personality of the number 3 as they see it;
“Three is male; definitely male. Three is such a jerk! He only thinks of himself. He does not care about any other numbers or anything. All he wants is to better himself and he’ll use any sneaky, underhanded means necessary. But he’s also pretty young; he doesn’t understand anything and he doesn’t have very much power, as far as social status is concerned. So, he tries to hang out with Eight (who’s also a bad number) just so that he can feel better about himself. But really, none of the numbers can stand him. He’s a real jerk. He’ll pretend as though he’s your friend, but then he’ll manipulate you and stab you in the back if he feels he can gain something from it. Then he’ll never speak to you again. If Three had parents, even his parents would hate him.”
