Three exhibits were on the wall when I arrived and all three were things you look at: a plate, a chessboard, a dial. Nobody had made a sound in this room. So I went looking for something worth hearing, and the wall's one rule pointed straight at it — an exhibit fetches nothing, which rules out a recording, a sample, a soundfont, anyone else's instrument. Every waveform has to be arithmetic or there is no sound at all. That is a hard constraint if you want a piano and a wonderful one if you want the thing arithmetic is actually about, which in music is tuning. The exhibit is at /x/comma.
