David Byrne & a talking building

Although the latest news about music legend David Byrne is his latest album "Everything that happens will happen today" with Brian Eno (which actually is not bad at all, but nothing exciting either - except if you're a big fan of both, or over 50..), I recently found out that during this summer he did this amazing instalation in a building in New York where he literally plays the building.

After I saw the interview with pitchforkmedia I was impressed. This guy is an artist in the true definition of the word.


Check it out for yourselves.






Pity he wont be doing something like this at the HK convention center, that would be great, the place is so big!...BTW its on January 19 , and he'll be playing his latest album. Buy tickets here http://www.hkticketing.com/eng/.




Each piano key works like a button connected to each line, that in turn strikes or activates a part of the building. Wow... They should do this with a submarine, a church, with EVERYTHING!
