Musical Swings

Each of the swings plays notes from one of four instruments—harp, piano, guitar, and vibraphone. If you synchronize your swing with the person’s next to you, they will play a melody based on your collaboration. As Daily tous les jours describes the experience, “It’s an intuitive game, where you make music with your entire body and where synchronized motion between participants unlocks secret melodies, encouraging cooperation.” Based in Montreal, Canada, the art and design studio Daily tous les jours creates projects that combine interactive art and urban design to explore human cooperation in public spaces. PLEASE USE CAUTION: Musical Swings is an artwork, not playground equipment. Surfaces in direct sunlight may reach high temperatures. Adult supervision is required.
