David Byrne literally plays a building in London

Aug 14, 2009 18:05

David Byrne has taken his "Playing the Building" installation to the London Roundhouse for the month of August.

Oh, FListers who live in the UK -- this is so very cool. Go & take some pictures of you playing, eh? :)

Yes, you get to play the building! There's even a couple of days where Byrne is inviting people to bring acoustic instruments and have a jam session with the building. Is this the coolest thing or what?

BTW, on Mondays they waive the £5 entrance fee (comes with a souvenir program) -- instead Mondays are "pay what you can." Hurray!

If you want a peek at what the installation in NYC was like, here's a Tube of U's for you:

There is also a small article in Utne about the Roundhouse installation, with a gorgeous photo of the installation in the Roundhouse itself.
