Musical Swings Art

Musical Chairs are so last year!   

We had the privilige of visiting the art installation, Musical Swings, thats in OKC for a couple of weeks.  It was such a great experience!

The Swings were created by Dalytous les jours, a Montreal-based insteraction design studio.  They are an exercise in musical cooperation.  The swings first premiered in 2014 in Green Mountain Falls, CO and has since traveled aroudn the US.  

Each swing is a different note, and represents one of 4 instruments: piano, harp, guitar, and a vibraphone.  Individually, each swing sounds great.  However, when you swing in time with other swings, you produce different notes creating even more beautiful cooperative pieces of music.  

The Musical Swings will be set up until October 13, 2019 at Bicenntenial Park in OKC.  The address is 1000 N. Broadway Ave.  The swings are open to the public, free to all ages from 9am-9pm.  

Will you go and check out the Swings?  Let me know what you think of them!
