The "Gadget" Effect: The effect achieved by playing with one or more of the washboard based Gadgets created by Pacific NW Folk/Blues artist Reggie Miles. Here are four days worth of video clips and images captured during the 2018 Oregon Country Fair, arranged in chron-illogical order and compressed into 12 minutes, featuring children of all ages interacting with my musical percussion and sound-effect toys. An experiment in interactive Musical Folk Arts and sound exploration for children. Providing an all-ages amusement with motor skill challenges and tactile/visual/auditory exercises, to create fun percussion and sound effects. Offering a -Do Touch!- experience, children freely explore, engage their curiosity, exercise their creativity, and enjoy a playful pause
