Wow! That's fantastic that your son is exploring the extended possibilites of his instrument. It sounds like he's playing the clarinet like a shakuhachi flute. You can do this without the mouthpiece and also minus the barrel. I prefer it with the barrel and recently did a CD using this technique (just a little). The saxaphonist Donald Sinta taught me how while he was getting a cup of coffee between lessons.
The only recording I'v ever heard of this technique is by Eric P. Mandat called "The Extended Clarinet." In his piece Folk Songs he does some gorgeous work using this, and a large vocabulary of other extended techniques. If you can't find his recordings, he teaches at Southern IL. U in Carbondale. He sells copies of his pieces, too.
