Bow geometry before the sounding note
Partial editorial baselineA public-domain detail makes the bow hair between two strings visible, while a contemporary stage photograph shows horizontal bow travel against a vertically held erhu.
All China Moments
Reader-built field atlas
Bow-Between-Strings Atlas
An erhu note becomes explainable when bow contact, left-hand location and audible pitch movement remain connected without assigning the player an emotion.
Two photographs that can be compared

A full playing view showing vertical instrument, left hand and horizontal bow travel
Frame 2
A closer bow-contact or left-hand view from the same player and phrase
What the note must add
Record setting, timestamp and whether the instrument is solo or in a section. Describe attack, slide, vibrato, pressure or spacing before naming an emotion; a still cannot prove pitch or bow force.
Submissions remain private until East Moment reviews the rights, specificity and usefulness of the record.
A visible baseline, with the gaps left open
These are East Moment editorial records built from authorized or rights-cleared imagery. They are not reader submissions and do not count toward the public record total.
The Atlas in public
No bow-contact record has returned with matched sound.
The first approved record will connect one visible contact to one audible change. An expressive portrait without a timestamp cannot complete the Atlas.
