Hiking
On the banks of the mighty Mississippi in downtown Baton Rouge, you'll find Sing the River, a unique interactive sculpture by artist Po Shu Wang. This shimmering, reflective installation—not unlike "The Bean" in Chicago—is not only a visual spectacle but also a musical work of art.
What makes it special? The sculpture is connected to sensors in the river that measure water level and current. This data is converted into sound, making the river "sing." Visitors can also interact by speaking into the sculpture or pressing buttons, creating a dialogue between humanity and nature.
