Notability[edit]

This seems to be notable with respect both to the size of the "instruments" and the lack of precedent. Therefore the notability template seems to be unnecessary. (The article could be enhanced by copying the references listed in the respective section of David Byrne.) Mapsax (talk) 01:30, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dude, there were a million articles about this. I got a NY Times one for now. Gimme a minute, I'll work it in. --Qwerty0 (talk) 00:17, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

..in fact, the press section on Byrne's official site has a litany of major news write-ups: http://www.davidbyrne.com/art/art_projects/playing_the_building/#press --Qwerty0 (talk) 00:42, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject templates[edit]

I have added a number of WikiProject templates to this talk page. It seems to me that the concept of making a building into a musical instrument involves elements of architecture, musical instrumentation, and public art, and the article states how this has been done in London and New York City in particular named buildings. I am removing the photo request. There are photos of the two named buildings available in their articles, so any editor so inclined could include them in this article. --DThomsen8 (talk) 00:29, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
