As part of the launch of Cœur de pirate’s new album “En cas de tempête, ce jardin sera fermé / In case of storm this garden will be closed” (a sign seen in Parisian public parks), Harrison Fun created an interactive musical bench, designed to allow people to discover short musical excerpts. Simply sit on one side of the bench and have someone else on the other end, and the seats will join together to allow you to listen to samples from the album. This subverted public bench, inspired by those found in Paris, is meant to represent the paradoxical, dual and poetic nature of Cœur de pirate’s lyrics. (Fun fact: Parisian public benches originally had pirate ships engraved as coat of arms, a small detail that we’ve used in the process of designing our own.) This project was shown in different venues and festivals across Québec throughout the summer.
