What it is
The Community Garden playfully represents the systems that empower (or disempower) our communities.
We do this with interactive art that's 90% fun with an opportunity to engage more deeply. At the center of the exhibit is a house, representing the individuals and families that make up a community. Surrounding it are whimsical interpretations of some of the major things affecting our lives: health care, the media, finance, utilities, politics, transportation...all represented as the living garden of our communities.
A garden that needs regular care and tending in order to thrive.

Playing the Pipes
Musical plumbing.
A tangle of valves and switches that lets you steer a living music system.
