Human Harp is a clip-on instrument that transforms suspension bridges into giant harps enabling participants to “play the bridge”. Conceived by artist Di Mainstone, the Human Harp team explored ways to record, process and release the vibrations of suspension cables, enabling performers to play the bridge.
My role on the team involved prototyping various physical computing interaction methods capable of producing sound. This project was done as part of the Copenhagen Institute of Interaction Design program.
As part of the collaboration between the Copenhagen Institute of Interaction Design and Di Mainstone I worked on the ideation, prototyping and production phase of the project.
Human Harp received global interest with articles in media such as Time Out, Observer, The New Yorker, Dezeen, Design Boom and The New York Times.
