      Babies are born far-sighted ( because their eyeballs are small , the light does not focus where it is supposed to) . They acquire adult-like vision by 4-5 years of age.
      In newborns , vision is generally tested by different methods like -
      1)shining a light in their eyes to see their pupil constricting
      2)'fixate and follow ' where they see on an object and follow it with their eyes as the examiner moves the object in space
      There are other specific tests too for certain abnormalities.

      @@londongael eyes do grow. As long as the eye socket grows the eye grows to accommodate to the space. That's why it's not recommended to operate from myopia(near-sightedness) before 25 - because until then the bones in the face are still growing, and the eyeballs grow to adapt to the new space, and as the eyeballs get bigger the myopia increases, too.

      The axial length of the eye {the distance between anterior-most and posterior-most point ( cornea to retina) } is measured by USG -A scan . This length is 16-18 mm in newborn and 21-24 mm in adults.
      Because of short axial length , the rays of light in newborn eyes focus behind the retina making them hyperopic ( far sighted). As the eyeball lengthens , this defect is mostly corrected and children gain normal vision (emmetropization).
      The cornea and lens of eye ( which can be seen from outside) don't grow much in diameter after birth , which is what I think you meant.
      Some amount of focus disparity is also corrected by the tone of our eye muscles (1D approx ) .This is more in children and they do have slightly more latent hyperopia because of this.

    My country's(Kyrgyzstan) national instrument is called Komuz(Qomuz), If someone is interested how it looks you can google it. I believe there are a few legends about how it was created, not sure If violin or any other string instrument has a legend behind its creation. I'll use google translate sometimes so sorry in advance if something doesn't make sense or else. Briefly, there was a boy(hunter) who fell in love with a really beautiful girl, it was love at first sight.But the young boy did not know how to express his love to the girl. In deep love anguish, he was sitting by the stream under an apricot tree and suddenly heard wonderful sounds. Looking up, the young man saw that the branches of the apricot tree were tied with something like strings,making a beautiful sound. At first, he could not see what the thin, wonderful-sounding strings were made of. Only after touching them, he saw that they were dried goat intestines. Apparently, some predator, dragging the victim up a tree, ripped open the belly about the knots, and the intestines, catching on the branches, dried up, stretched and turned into strings.The hunter, struck by the beauty of the sound, broke off a dry trunk from an apricot tree and gave it the shape of a tear, pulled the strings and sang to the beauty about his love. Charmed by the beauty of the melodies, she became his wife.
    This is a legend about the creation of the very first Komuz, I think a lot of countries have their own ones about national instruments,but I'm not sure. I'd love to read some of them If anyone can share.

Baktıktan sonra genç adam, kayısı dallarının iplikçikler gibi bir şeyle sürüklendiğini gördü ve içlerinde büyülü bir şarkı söyleyen bir rüzgar sesi duyuyordu. İlk başta, hangi ince, harika ses tellerinin dokunduğunu anlayamadı. Sadece onlara dokunduktan sonra bunların kuru keçi bağırsakları olduğunu gördüm. Görünüşe göre, avını bir ağaca sürükleyen bir yırtıcı hayvanın karnını düğümlere doğru uzattığı ve bağırsakların dallara yapıştığı, kuruduğu, gerildiği ve dizelere dönüştüğü görülüyor, genç adam karar verdi.

Как-то мимо проезжал молодой охотник и увидел ее, с первого взгляда влюбился в юную красавицу и решил жениться на ней. Но не знал юноша, как выразить девушке свою любовь. В глубокой любовной тоске сидел он у ручья под урючиной и вдруг услышал дивные звуки. Подняв глаза, молодой человек увидел, что ветви урючины перетянуты чем-то, словно нитями, и в них звучит ветер волшебным пением. Сначала он не мог разглядеть, из чего сплетены тонкие, дивно звучащие нити. Только потрогав их, увидел, что это высохшие козьи кишки. Видимо, какой-то хищник, затащив жертву на дерево, о сучки распорол брюхо, и кишки, зацепившись за ветви, высохли, натянулись и превратились в струны, решил юноша. Охотник, пораженный красотой звука, отломил от урючины сухой ствол и придал ей форму слезы, натянул струны и спел красавице о своей любви. Очарованная красотой мелодий, она стала его женой

      What a wonderful story! There's an Ancient Greek story about the god, Apollo, fashioning the first lyre from a tortoise shell (sound box), some animal horns and gut strings, when he was a newborn infant. I might have some details wrong, but I think that's more or less it.
      To get more realistic, from prehistoric times, hunters and their families used every bit of the carcase, and gut must have been very useful for all sorts of strings - e.g bow strings - I mean archers' bows, but obviously, they are the ancestor of the violin bow. Are not all ancient instruments made from dead animals and other natural objects? The ancestor of a French Horn, say, was an animal's horn, birds' hollow bones make flutes, and so on.
      It can't have been long before somebody realised that, not only could you make musical sounds by twanging them, you could alter the pitch by shortening the taut piece of the string. It must have seemed that the spirit of the dead animal could magically sing.
      To me, it shows how deep in the human psyche music is.

      Complex things come from simpler things. Probably the first string instruments came from a stretched thread or thong and were plucked. Through the years, people experimented with different ways to make the strings (think of how some people are always fussing with their cars or computers to make them run better). And as they experimented with strings, they experimented with ways to make the strings vibrate. And they worked out different shapes the strings were stretched over. All you have to do is look at all the many different types of string instruments all over the world, and you can see how different people came up with lots of ingenious ways to make sound. And today's violins came from much earlier versions (that ancient instrument specialists like to play still).

    Explaining just intonation vs. equal temperament is easy. A perfect fifth shows up in the overtone series. The way to get a fifth absolutely in tune is to multiply the frequency of the fundamental by 1.5. The problem is that if you follow this all around the circle of fifths you overshoot a tiny bit: when you get back to the note (or the note in a different octave), it’s sharp. If you tune your keyboard to C Major using exact overtones for the fifth and major third, which is what just intonation is, playing in C will sound perfectly in tune, no beats, but the farther around the circle of fifths you get, the more out of tune you’ll be in the new key. During the Baroque period someone figured out that if you tuned every interval a tiny bit flat, you could get around the circle of fifths and arrive at the same note in tune. This meant your playing was always a tiny bit out of tune but every key was equally in tune so you could now modulate freely. But a violin doesn’t have fixed keys like a keyboard so you can actually play in just intonation by finger position in any key you want.
    [Note: thanks to Luke Fowler for telling me I went the wrong way in my original explanation, now corrected. If you follow the just intonation cycle of fifths you end up overshooting, not undershooting, so to get to equal temperament each fifth has to be slightly flatted.]
    In looking at the responses I notice that a lot of people are finding this Greek. If anyone is interested in my translating parts of it, like if you don’t know what a fifth is or a circle of fifths or what overtones are I can explain those.

      1 That's Pythagorean tuning, which uses only pure 5ths. The major 3rds are even wider than in 12 tone equal temperament and it has not been used historically for tonal music.
      2. The 5ths are narrowed not widened, to create 12 tone equal temperament
      3. 12TET was theorised before the baroque period and rejected as being too out-of-tune.
      4 Just intonation uses a series of whole number frequency ratios to create intervals, 2:1= octave, 3:2 = perfect 5th, 4:5 = perfect 4th, 5:4 = major 3rd etc and it includes a major and minor tone as well as a major and minor semitone. The problem with just intonation is twofold: there is always a very narrow "wolf-fifth" in every scale and the problem of having to adjust individual pitches when modulating.
      In Western classical music before the baroque period the first solutions were "meantone" temperaments which averaged the major and minor tones and preserved some pure intervals in several keys, eg 1/4 comma meantone (relating to the 5ths being narrowed by 1/4 of the syntonic comma - the frequency ratio of 81:80, which is the difference between a Pythagorean and a pure major third) preserves 8 pure major 3rds.
      The baroque period saw the development of circulating temperaments which tempered 5ths by various fractions of the Pythagorean comma rather than the syntonic comma. They do not preserve any pure intervals but they do not contain a wolf 5th like the meantone temperaments and render a larger number of keys payable as well as more variety in the characteristics of each key.
      As you can see, it really isn't simple to explain! I think they did a great job at a casual intro to the problem of intonation and temperament.

      Michael Praetorius started his career in the 1500s too - most people have heard some of the "Terpsichore" pieces, and he wrote the tunes now used for some Christmas carols too. Now I'm wanting to get out my old LP "Golden Dance Hits of the 1500's" (yess the record sleeve was shiny gold!) and convert it to digital...

    4:12 - last semester in highschool orchestra we were playing Saint-Saen's Danse Macabre. I'm first chair so I got the solo and the music two weeks ahead of everyone else. Falling in love with the piece, I listened to it a solid forty or fifty times before our first rehearsal.
    During rehearsal the first violins got to a tricky chromatic section as I sat back and watched (in amused sympathy). The solo doesn't actually have much, so I had a lot of time to just sit there... and I was _fully_ aware of the nightmare that awaited them after the chromatics. It's one of those sections that looks absolutely terrifying (but actually is pretty easy once you play it a few times - string crossing, mostly) - so I couldn't help but laugh heartily as the ENTIRE section flipped the page and let out a simultaneous groan.
    RIP them. I had the easy part XD

I'd be surprised to find a few droplets of it in the water that comes out of the main tube, and I'd be even more surprised to find any at all in all the other tubes.

His channel has videos of him playing the most epic of pieces including Liszt la Campanella, Chopin heroic polonaise, Liszt Hungarian rhapsody 2. When someone brings up the excuse that la Campanella needs big hands, or any piece needs big hands, we need only refer them to Jonah Ho!
    edit: there’s also a video of him playing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star on the violin at 3. I can guarantee that at 3 he is better than our sacrilegious boi who learnt the violin at 21 months of age!
