Adam, let's take a different approach to this. Here are four
questions:

(1) *Why* does a hand clap generate a sound?

(2) How would such knowledge affect how flamenco artists shape their
hands while clapping?

(3) Do the edges of their hands need to 'close' completely in order to
make the particular sound that they desire?

(4) Is it true that waving one hand in the air makes no sound?
