Basically the title. What's your favorite consonant sound as of late, and has it changed in the past?
Pretty much what the title says. What's a feature in your conlang that you find especially cool?

I wrote a 13 minute poetic myth in a polysynthetic logosyllabic language I constructed to have a 24edo compositional orthography where each syllable has a 1 measure melody which is transposed up and down to indicate its grammatical usage. It also has phonetic, glyphic, and postural orthographies....
