The chair

Social Structure

The Bench Fiona Raby and Anthony Dunne

“…two cold steel benches located in different cities, When somebody sits on one of them, a corresponding position on the other bench warms up opening up a sound channel.... At the other location, by feeling the bench for `body heat', a person can decide to make contact by sitting on the warm part, or open their own channel by sitting nearby. Initially the sound channel is distorted, but as the bench slowly warms up, the channel clears, providing a moment to discretely slide away if you change your mind. “
