Compass Song is an app-based public sound artwork inspired by Times Square’s rich history as the Crossroads of the World. Artists Mendi + Keith Obadike have stretched fragments of music, poetry, stories, and myths across the pedestrian plazas and surrounding blocks in all four cardinal directions, for visitors to discover whether they’re exploring the neighborhood or simply on their way to work. Compass Song was commissioned by and created in residence with Times Square Arts. Photo courtesy of Ian Douglas for Times Square Arts.

So after the train passed there was a small group of people on the other side of the train. They got a look of Mack photographing the doll and turned around and hiked back up to the entrance.
Finally a first try with the new wide angle wet lens. The corners are a bit blurred and all in all there is definitely room for improvement. Maybe I'm going to join another AOWD compass navigation dive soon ;-)

The compass is gimballed so that it always stays upright, even on the swells of the ocean.
Thanks to Robert Malo at the Manitoba Museum for sharing his expertise.
