I hope somebody has a chance to make high-quality samples/recordings before it's fixed. I doubt we'll get the chance to hear an instrument like this again, accidental or not.
The engineers said it's a known outcome from high winds. It seems they made a conscious choice to decreasing the structural risk of extreme wind hitting the bridge in exchange for increasing the noise it generates
> before it's fixed
Given that it was intentional, what makes you think it'll be "fixed"?
The article clarifies that "intentional" really just means "known about beforehand", and I imagine if enough people are annoyed they could "fix" it.
It's going to be and should be fixed or at least alleviated. They probably thought there would be some noise but not like this. Some model prediction most likely didn't encompass some environmental element.
Hope to see some musicians creating harmony with it live too.
Came here to say this. This is actually going to end up in the soundtrack to a horror film.
