Red Swing Project was initiated by three students from the school of architecture of the University of Texas (Austin) and is now spreading all over the world (US, France, India, Brazil, Thailand...). Principle is very simple: leave a red swing in an urban zone as a gift to the people as a first appropriation of the public space.I really like this project because by using a very apolitical device it express the wish literally and symbolically of a more democratic common territory.You can see the thirty two first swings here and go on the website which gives some explanation about how to release your own swing.
