Ahead of Thursday’s dedication at Tapawingo Park, how light, 3D printing and data straight from the Wabash River play into a new sculpture from West Lafayette’s artist-in-residence project
Four things. 1. Your article reminded me about Esteban's work and Foam City. Maybe you should write an article about Paul Baldwin's cultural contributions to Lafayette. 2. I love Johnny Cash and I did not know about the Wabash song. Wow. Mind blown. 3. I'm currently writing a chapter for my second book about Native Indiana and the chapter is Wabash River-centered. The river has been on my mind, might say a confluence of ideas. 4. It was the Wabash River that convinced me to take the job at Purdue. The sight of that beautiful river running through the town convinced me I'd be ok here. And I'm still ok here. Well done, Dave.

Thanks for that note. Here's more from a 2018 article that looked at the Lafayette connections to that song. https://www.jconline.com/story/opinion/columnists/dave-bangert/2018/08/09/bangert-time-johnny-cash-stopped-lafayette-go-fishing/934430002/
