Seesaw Organ

Seesaw Organ is a musical playground instrument in which the motion of a seesaw drives two bellows, which then feed air to organ pipes. Players control which pipes are sounding via handbrake cables that control valves inside air routing wind chests that also serve as benches.
Seesaw-Door

Seesaw-Door is an interactive installation featuring three seesaws, each created with salvaged doors and frames from Nevada junkyards. Embedded with assorted peepholes, the doors obstruct direct visibility while creating semi-visible interactions through limited sightlines.
This playground device becomes a metaphor for modern connection, simultaneously separating and linking participants. The repurposed doors and peepholes humorously challenge consumerist values. As a temporary Burning Man piece, it will complete its narrative through ritual burning, embodying creation to dissolution.
