The Battery Maritime Building, to be specific.
Playing the Building: An Installation by David Byrne (of Talking Heads)
“Creative Time presents Playing the building, a sound installation in which the infrastructure, the physical plant of the building, is converted into a giant musical instrument. Devices are attached to the building structure — to the metal beams and pillars, the heating pipes, the water pipes — and are used to make these things produce sound. The activations are of three types: wind, vibration, striking. The devices do not produce sound themselves, but they cause the building elements to vibrate, resonate and oscillate so that the building itself becomes a very large musical instrument.”






















I took one look at that organ hooked up and put on ‘Intervention’ by Arcade Fire.
(…I hope doesn’t mean that I missed the point entirely.)
There was absolutely no point to be missed =)
