This is one of the entries for the Fourth Plinth
Crackleplant, mixed media, by Mike Blow, 2011
Crackleplants are sculptural musical instruments which can be played by touching combinations of leaves. Some combinations make more sound than others, as the sound of the electronic circuit is altered by skin resistance.
