The Living Bridge

The tune, composed by uilleann piper Antonia Wernig, is named for this very cool pedestrian bridge at the University of Limerick that crosses the Shannon River:

So how is the bridge "living"? I don't get it.

It wobbles as you walk over it.

Cool bridge though. One must walk over it to get to the Irish World Academy Building which won't actually be in full use until next year.
