Bridge Talks Back!

For those of you who were unable to make it to last weekend's Fremont Bridge Talks Back celebration, here are some selected images we found via the P.I.


The culmination of artist Kristen Ramirez's summertime residence in the bridge towers, sponsored by Seattle's Office of Arts and Cultural Affairs, featured a sound scape Ramirez arranged with various noises picked up around the bridge, and several memories and comments left by regular bridge users on a message service she created for the project.



The sound scape will play every time the bridge is raised from now until April.



And a longer audio artwork, including excerpts from messages left by the public earlier this summer, can be heard by calling 1-800-761-9941.
