Jeff Waldman - Swings: Los Angeles



Jeff Waldman installiert mit Freunden und Helfern ungefragt Schaukeln in Los Angeles sowie San Francisco und bringt damit Spass und Kindheitsgefühle in den Alltag zurück. 

Nachdem die Awesome Foundation auf das Projekt aufmerksam wurde, spendete sie Waldman 1000 US-Dollar, um 50 weitere Schaukeln aufzuhängen. Als nächstes sind weitere kostenlose öffentliche Schaukeln in La Paz, Bolivien geplant. Waldman ruft für das Projekt "Swings: Bolivia" zu spenden auf.

"What started last year as a conversation about the simplistic pleasures of swings has launched into a multi-city experiment in unexpected joy and cerebral happiness. Via contact info we left on the wooden seats we've received notes from those that used them, talking about the surprising smiles that were left on their faces. They wrote how their days were made better and how the emotions that emerged from stumbling across and using a random swing permeated their afternoon and infected those they came into contact with. The joy felt and the urge to spread it was contagious."
