NYC Subway as Stringed Instrument

Artist Alexander Chen has turned New York City's subway map into a digital work of musical art. As trains cross paths on Massimo Vignelli's 1972 subway map they strum the lines. Go to Chen's interactive site, and you can also play the lines, or just watch the video below. An article, including an interview with Chen, is available here.
