I'm excited! Can you suggest any teachers of quantum acoustics and relativistic fingering? There are some people I'd like to pelt with painful whistle sound particles!

You could try this guy:

There once was a fellow named Bright
Who whistled faster than light
He started to play
In a relative way
And finished the previous night

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

What an exquisitely brilliant idea. How did I not think of it?

I could put you in touch with one fella who once said - and I kid you not - "Who needs to tune?!" He definitely had the goods on relativistic stuff.

I like the fact that two people can play at the same time too. :-)

What would a wild walrus whistle if a walrus could whistle wild?

The second mouse may get the cheese but the presentation leaves a lot to be desired.

Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.

You know guys, I'm frankly surprised at you. You all go "Whaaa-ha-ha-ha!! What a lark!" As if MTGuru didn't have the idea of the century. Well, it's perfectly feasable. Only slightly differently from the way he's gone about it. What you do is get a D whistle, get a C whistle, get a lenght of tubing slipping over the ends of both of them, drill some tuning holes into the extension tubing, and hey! presto! a combination C/D whistle. Simple. I think the idea has uncounted possibilities. In a pinch can be used as a long blunt weapon in a pub session when things get a bit out of hand.
(It's true about the real feasibility of such a beast, though...)( technically speaking...)

Okay for you. As for me, my horizons have been expanded, if a bit beskewed, for it. It's sort of like a Möbius strip, or a Klein bottle.

Speaking of Klein bottles, here's one made of Legos®:
