Permanent signs have been put up on the Fremont Bridge, enticing passers-by to call it. The opening celebration of Kristen Ramirez’ public art project may be over, but “Bridge Talks Back” will ring on through April 2010.
Over the summer the artist set up a voice message line inviting residents to tell their favorite stories or memories about the bridge. She then created an audio composition made of portions of some of those messages, combined with various sounds from the bridge. You can hear that recording 24/7 by calling 1-800-761-9941.
