Maybe simpler to look for existing video of spiders plucking webs
and then adding sound in time with the plucking?
Possibly vary note with the length of the part of the web plucked?
Montage of random notes and spiders going 1,2, 1,2 before the music starts

Simpler, yes
but the objective is to hear what the spider's web actually sounds like.
My guess is it's less of a springlike PEW and more like a membranous wobbly scratchy noise.

What might an optical pickup do with a screen image?
Presumably altering contrast/brightness/etc. to suit.

You'd need a phd and a high enough screen refresh rate to get accurate audio from a video of vibration, I think.
Consider CD audio is 44,100 'frames' per second, while HD video is between 24 and 60 frames per second, so there's just not enough information to work with to reproduce high frequency sounds.

Of course, the display is the limiting factor, irrespective of the camera speed.
I imagined if a high speed camera was used, the footage slowed, then corrected for frequency after. As you say, not easy.

I imagine they would sound like a slack rubber band
They aren't taut and when something got stuck it would dampen resonance
