Harmonica Chair
The harmonica (accordion in Polish) is a popular musical instrument with a distinctive pleated shape. The Harmonica chair is an experiment in deconstructing the pleats into separate triangles and making flexible connections. We used plywood for the structure and flexible jute rope for connectors. The geometry of the triangles helped to minimize wasted plywood. The tension of the yarn keeps the structure together and creates a seat.

On tour with The Colorfools in the Midwest. We stopped by Madison WI to witness the protests over an anti-union bill. Feb. 2011.
Saturday night saw my wife and I hop on down to Surfers Paradise RSL to catch "The Dynamics​" featuring Izzy (Isobel Hall​) and Wazza (Warren Thomas​). Was great being able to catch them performing in a club that actually had lighting which really made a difference when it came to taking photos - I counted ten spots.
Thoroughly enjoyable night of music, great vocals, fine guitarmanship (is there such a word? well there is now!). Covering Aus Rock, Classic Rock, Country and Modern Rock, was really fun, bopping along to tunes we had grown up with.
A bonus on the night was when Jonathan Everett-Jones took to the stage and joined in on some tunes with his legendary harp playing - the same Jonathan Everett-Jones who in years gone by played with the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Alexis Korner and Supertramp amongst others including Joe Cocker and his Grease Band back in the 60's.

Had the privilege to be close to this group of Harmonica players whom I found out that they have been world champions for 5 times.
The group is now called "HARMONIA Conjunto Português de Harmónicas"
Beautiful sounds.
