Time to take your lunch break and savour a Sonic Bite… on Thu 26 November
Recalling her own dreamlike experience of entering the Musée d’Orsay’s Salle des Fêtes and the building’s curiously checkered history, join Ela Orleans on an enchanting exploration of this intriguing museum installed in a former Parisian railway station. Featuring classical orchestration, musique concrète, elements of AI and lyrics inspired by Giorgio de Chirico’s surrealist masterpiece Hebdomeros, it is a timely ode to travelling, movement and preservation.
A Cryptic Commission presented as part of a digital double bill with Alex Smoke.
