I was thinking the other day about content sharing and why I started this blog. There are so many amazing things out in the world that ingenious artists have created that aren't hanging on walls somewhere behind glass barriers or velvet ropes.
Art that you can interact with, touch and listen to is so much more important. It becomes part of your life, part of your world. Remembered long after you've forgotten the piece of art you couldn't touch or interact with.
Chimecco by architect/artist
Mark Nixon is a perfect example - an interactive wind chime that can be played by walkers on the bridge above. Wind will also create sounds naturally (similar to the
Aeolus Wind Pavilion.)
Go make something today and change the world.....
