Tacoma Bridge Collapse: The Wobbliest Bridge in the World? (1940) | British Pathé

Why it was recommended

Thanks for the pointer to "interaction ritual" theory, which could be related with: • Time-oriented Art — poetry, music, film, dance, theatre • John Lilly's research with dolphins, leading to the "Lilly Wave" carrier frequency • Haptic technology, e.g. Apple Watch mediated pulse sensor/actuator • Resonance from wind stimulus, e.g. Tacoma Narrows bridge collapse, [VIDEO]
