The Echo bench plays a previously recorded message when someone sits down and offers an opportunity to record a new message to be played for the next person. It would be placed near a public walkway so that people could sit, reflect, and leave their message in a serendipitous moment. The interaction provides an opportunity for people to reach out to the world; to express concerns and hope within the safety of anonymity. People can express themself freely; whether that be voice, song, or other forms of audio. We defined this experience as "Echo: a messenger who reflects and reverberates the introspective expressions of humanity."
