When someone sits on the bench it activates the melody of one instrument and when the bench is full and all sensors are triggered, the whole symphony sounds. Each person contributes to the symphony, empowering his or her sitting on the bench with others. The anticipation of seeing what the next person will trigger is rewarded with an additional sound piece, completing the beautiful unification of symphonic melody. <\/p>\n<p>Music: W.A.
