Swingin' Bus Stop

There's no indication of where this bus stop is, but it's a great idea for the entire world! Link -via Breakfast Links

Update: Neatoramanaut Joshua Frazer identified this! It's an art installation in Montreal called 21 Balançoires in which the swings play music. Link -Thanks, Joshua!

This was different from the Red Swing project. It was a musical art installation. The sounds/notes you got were different if you cooperated with your follow swingers or not!

When I saw the still image I thought, "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert?" but when it moved I thought more along the lines of Snooki.

The theremin soundtrack didn't help pull me out of the heebie-jeebies.

Looks less plastic than many celebrities.

Where they fall apart for me is really the eyes -- they shouldn't remain stationary long and should fix on a specific object when the head swivels.

Still, neat.

If they've made it out of the uncanny valley, they did it by climbing out the other side by being less realistic.

Wonder though how much variation there is in the general public for the width of the uncanny valley.
