(kida-mnesia.com) The official project site says Motion Picture House is a “large-scale audiovisual installation and art gallery” built to showcase KID A MNESIA. Each visit includes a 75-minute movie and additional time to move through gallery spaces at a visitor’s own pace. The soundtrack uses a new mix drawn from the Kid A and Amnesiac multitracks and is presented in six-point surround sound. Time Out New York reported that the physical installation includes galleries of large-scale artwork by Thom Yorke and Stanley Donwood, projected visuals, distorted architecture and immersive sound. The publication said the Brooklyn version expands on the KID A MNESIA virtual exhibition first released through Epic Games in 2021. (timeout.com) ### Where is it, and how long is Brooklyn hosting it?
