It’s similar to the way a crab walks from side to side, hence the name Crab Carillon. The melody starts and ends with a Bach-inspired C minor.
But, the project goes beyond conceptual art. The bridge was actually commissioned by the city of San Diego as a civil engineering solution to create a safer walking environment for school children.“They were looking for ways to make it a better crossing for the kids, and they thought an artist was a good person to do that,” de Salvo said.
“It’s designed against head entrapment, “ de Salvo said. “When we had to add these things here, these intermediate stiles, strumming became a situation where you also are strumming the noise of the railing.”
