If you’re going to be in Paris soon, you might want to head to the Pompidou Centre. Björk and the French artist Aleph have collaborated on an immersive sound piece that recreates extinct animal calls and that will play as people travel on escalators in the museum. @pitchfork has more details on what to expect. “We wanted to share [the animals’] presence in an architecture representing the industrial age, far away from nature,” Björk and Aleph wrote in a statement. “In the veins of the escalator of the museum, known as the ‘caterpillar,’ we wanted to remind citizens of the raw vitality of endangered creatures.” You can watch the trailer for the show on Instagram and X (linked in the article). Below is a YouTube link if you’re not on those platforms.
