Another entry from the aforementioned Treemendous Treehouses exhibit at the Atlanta Botanical Garden was "a swing that strummed a melody from a sound chamber above".
Musical Flight," designed by Robert Tretsch and Edward Palisoc of Ink Architects, was nestled in an oak near the sculpture Stillness and Growth and took the shape of a perched songbird. A swing in movement strummed a melody from a wood, wire, and steel, sound chamber while wings flapped in the breeze. Counter-balancing wood "tail feathers" anchored the tree house. "
Apologies for the poor quality photo; I couldn't find anything better, but I wanted to include this lovely idea for a swing that sings.
avasu1I can get you a better photo if you want. I designed it. : )
