Art that evokes the "I am here" moment
Playing the Building - David Byrne
If this isn't a Watashi Wa Iru ("I am here") piece I don't know what it is. Ii don't give a damn if it isn't virtual art. Makes me love David Byrne even more!
"The project consists of a retrofitted antique organ, placed in the center of the building's cavernous second-floor gallery, that controls a series of devices attached to its structural features—metal beams, plumbing, electrical conduits, and heating and water pipes. These machines vibrate, strike, and blow across the building’s elements, triggering unique harmonics and producing finely tuned sounds."
Here's another video of it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkiAPgGS9Rc

David Byrne is an interesting chap. I wish those people in background of that video would shutup though.
I really loved the bit in the video Ichibot linked to starting at 3.37.
