Megaphone

 


 

Another of the new BIG pieces for the Borås Art Biennial, which started this past weekend - a wooden pavilion on a platform in the river, entitled Megaphone. You are welcome to go out on it, and perhaps sit there and talk, it seems... Whether everyone will then also hear what you say, I don't know!!

  1. I love it, it's beautiful! I am assuming it is permanent...

  2. we have a megafone dowtown, but not beautiful like this one, it magnifies the voice or singing

    1. That sounds interesting, Sandra. I'm having difficulties imagining this wooden structure actually magnifying sound... But I suppose it could perhaps be used as a stage for a small concert or solo singer. (Not sure if that's the purpose, though!)

  3. I think it's rather attractive. However whether it is anything other than pleasing to look at is questionable.

    1. Graham, I agree. It may only be meant to visually remind of a megaphone because the theme of the biennial is "Deep listening for longing" and some of the other installations also involve sound. But I suppose it might also be used as some kind of stage - that remains to be seen!

  4. I like the basket-like structure. It would not have made me think of a megaphone if you had not said it.

    1. Meike, I doubt I'd have thought of it either, if I had not seen the name mentioned in the newspaper...
