  This paper presents a Research through Design exploration of the potential
for using tangible interactions to enable active music experiences - musicking
- for non-musicians. We present the Tubularium prototype, which aims to help
non-musicians play music without requiring any initial skill. We present the
initial design of the prototype and the features implemented in order to enable
music-making by non-musicians, and offer some reflections based on observations
of informal initial user explorations of the prototype.
