A Trevelyan Rocker is a heat driven oscillator. The edges of the slot cause the lead to expand each time the pipe tips to the side. The expanding lead pushes the side of the slot away causing the pipe to tip to the other side. This process repeats itself.

thats sweet! everything has resonant frequnecies . you can sort of hear a few harmonics too as it vibrates, like 2 or 3 octaves above the vibrating frequency. thats really cool!
