This is a traveling interactive art display that is installed in Bicentennial Park between the Civic Center and City Hall.

Each swing has a different note and the higher you swing, the higher the pitch.

Tons of people out today taking advantage. Will be in place for about a month.

I've been by two separate evenings and it is packed each time. So cool to see. A permanent display such as this would be neat down by the Boathouse District.

Yes, tons of people milling about waiting for a turn the two times I've been by.

This is a perfect example of placemaking, in my opinion. I wish we could make this permanent because OKC would quickly become known for this attraction across the country. Similar to how virtually everyone you know who has been to Chicago has taken a picture with the Chicago Bean, I could see this being one of the things tourists love posting on social media.

Since it's a touring exhibit, I wonder what else we could create here that would have such a draw due to its uniqueness.
