The Swings: An Exercise in Musical Cooperation will arrive on the plaza of Brookfield Place on June 10th. There will be ten swings in all, with each swing representing four instruments – piano, harp, guitar and vibraphone, creating various melodies as participants swing back and forth. The installation was created by Daily tous les jours, a Montreal-based design studio, with a focus on community participation.
