Went to see the Céleste Boursier-Mougenot exhibition at the Curve gallery in the Barbican yesterday. For those who have no idea what i'm talking about, it's basically birds playing guitars. I went there thinking I was going to see one guitar in a glass box with a few birds in but was pleasantly surprised to find the entire curve gallery dedicated to an immersive walk-thru experience. surrounded by different instruments rigged up to speakers and a large flock of zebra finches (no, i had no idea before going there either but I can exclusively reveal that they are lovely little birds, kind of like little flying hamsters in the way they act (inquisitive/friendly/squeaky). Always nice getting a close look at animals, especially when they are shredding like Hendrix presenting 'Will it Blend' *...
Theres a great atmosphere in there, I advise a day visit if possible, it gets busy after 6pm...
