He plays the box sort of like a bata. Right hand on the playing surface (replacing the enu of the bata), and left hand holding a spoon plays the adjacent left side of the box (replacing the bata's cha).
His right leg supports right in front so that right hand is slightly to the right of the leg, and left leg is to the left of the box's corner, and left hand to the left of the left leg. This allows for the body to sit straight up as you play without bending over! Once you get the feel of this sitting posture, you can't beat it's ergonomic ease..

Quick question, and it is probably a function of me not being able to visualize the playing position you described, but when playing the bass notes - does Barel just use his right hand? Or does he adjust the spoon with his left?
I might take you up on that SKYPE demonstration, or maybe you can grace us all with a YouTube video so the information could be shared with all?
Thanks for sharing the pattern!
