'xylophone bin' by dominic wilcox

UK designer dominic wilcox will show ‘field’, an installation that aims to make
a connection between the products we consume and the natural world to which they
ultimately return. using hundreds of shoes from ethical shoe company terra plana,
wilcox has applied a touch of magic to the laces as they rise up in unison and grow
towards the window’s light, (no images available yet).


when the pedal is pressed the lid opens, releasing a ball that travels down a 'helterskelter' set of xylophone steps around the bin.
each time the ball hits a step, a note is played.
