Gaze at the image at right, then read this paragraph from The Villager:
Imagine the Washington Square Arch transformed into a 60-foot-tall harp whose strings vibrate with the wind, pick up ambient sound and radio and television waves, all combining in a strange but harmonic music controlled at a console at the base of the arch.Oh yes! It's hands-down the greatest idea we've heard since that scheme to form a human chain around the Lower East Side. But given the visual imagery here—c'mon, check out the preacher-type literally vibrating at the base of the harp—we're giving this the edge.
