	Didgeridoo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The didgeridoo (or didjeridu) is a wind instrument of the Indigenous Australians of northern Australia.
		Authentic Aboriginal didgeridoos produced in traditionally-oriented communities in northern Australia are usually made from hardwoods, especially the various eucalyptus species that are endemic to the region.
		The rhythm of the didgeridoo and the beat of the clapsticks are precise, and these patterns have been handed down for generations upon generations.

	How to play Didgeridoo
		The didgeridoo is also known by the name of Yidaki, which is a word that the Yolungu people use in the northern parts of Australia.
		We must remember that the didgeridoo is one of the oldest wind instruments in the world and therefore it is a very simple instrument to play.
		To incorporate our tongue, ok remember we need to keep the didgeridoo sound which is the loose lips and the wind passing through, and using the tongue on the top, the roof of your mouth and flicking it down to hit the front of your lips.

		To play the didgeridoo your lips need to be loose and vibrating, very similar to what a baby does when it blows bubbles.

	Physics of the didgeridoo
		Termite hollowed didgeridoos have a very irregular inner surface unique to each didgeridoo which do give many a genuine didgeridoo very interesting sound characteristics, but make it far too complicated to describe physically.
		Consequently this page is really about the physics of a PVC didgeridoo or any other didgeridoo as long as the inside diameter is exactly the same for the whole length of the didgeridoo.
		This means that the frequency of a 1.32cm long didgeridoo will be about 3.4% higher if the temperature is 40° C, which is halfway between C and C#.
