Björk Digital Exhibition

Saturday 22 October 2016 18:00 - 20:00
Somerset House
Social & Recreational | Alternative Music
An immersive virtual reality exhibition from Icelandic icon Björk. Björk constantly and consistently challenges the status quo, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in music, art and technology. The exhibition at Somerset House invites visitors to engage with her work through the latest in virtual reality (VR) technology. Björk believes that by offering a private theatrical experience, VR provides a unique way to connect with her audiences. Somerset House’s edition of the Björk Digital exhibition will include never-before-seen work by Björk. There will also be an interactive educational space which showcases the innovative apps and custom-made musical instruments from Biophilia, an app created by Björk that explores music, nature and technology. A programme of Björk’s extensive video work will run alongside the exhibition, spanning the artist’s 24-year career during which she has collaborated with film directors including the award winning Spike Jonze, Michel Gondry, Nick Knight and Stephane Sednaoui. The Alt Music Society will be visiting the exhibition on the 22nd October. Tickets will be on sale soon (Likely to be Thursday 13th October 6pm).
