help! I have a new cubicle. I am seated under a beam/air duct (cylindrical metal thing) above my head. I cannot move and I cannot hang flutes under it. Anything else I can do?

1. Other Traditional methods:

Since this is a "metallic" "beam", then another option is to draw a small thin red line where this air-duct is just above your head or use scotch tape or masking tape and place a thin red string with two ends with the tape. The red string runs above your head.

2. If you do it properly, very hard to notice the red "line". This red line represents fire element to curtail the "metal".

Hope the above helps.
