Itaru Sasaki's cousin died of cancer. Sasaki struggled with the loss. To help him move through the grief, he purchased an old phone booth and added a rotary phone. That's what you see in the garden pictured above. Sasaki can, when he needs to, pick up the phone and speak as though he's communicating with is departed cousin.
Thus began the Wind Phone movement. There are at least 551 around the world, including 386 in the United States. Many are in spaces open to the public. You may be able to find one near your home using these interactive maps.
