antiquities



New York City's famous Solomon R. Guggenheim museum gets a bit more hipper by the day. For their 50th Anniversary, other-worldly sounding art-rock band Animal Collective is collaborating with visual artist Danny Perez to put together a performance art piece.

"...that will transform the museum’s rotunda into a kinetic, psychedelic environment. Transverse Temporal Gyrus will feature original recorded music composed specifically for the event along with video projections, costumes, and props, rendering the band members and performers into intense, visual abstractions. During the evening, guests are invited to freely explore the space in order to fully immerse themselves in the environment created by Animal Collective and Danny Perez."

I want to go to there.

P.S. Take a look at my sister's blog, Doing It and Doing It and Doing It Well. It's totally awesome.
