Radiohead have announced a touring art installation called “Motion Picture House: KID A MNESIA.” The new exhibit, which is set to debut at Coachella, will feature artwork Thom Yorke and Stanley Donwood created during the “Kid A” and “Amnesiac” sessions backed by music from the original multitracks. It will also include galleries with full-scale artwork.

The installation will hit the following cities:
05/06-31 Brooklyn, NY – Agger Fish Building
07/30-08-23 Chicago, IL – Cinespace Studio
10/27-11-15 Mexico City, MX – La Maravilla Studios
01/14-02/07 San Francisco, CA – Palace of Fine Arts
More information was provided on the exhibit:
“Fans will recall the ‘KID A MNESIA’ exhibition directed by Sean Evans and featured on Epic Games Store and PS5, aptly described by The Verge as ‘unsettling and beautiful.’ ‘KID A MNESIA’ was originally intended as an experience in a physical space and while the pandemic necessitated Epic Games’ Unreal Engine transporting the project to a virtual world, Motion Picture House is the actualization of the original idea: an opportunity for audiences to be completely enveloped in the world of ‘Kid A’ and ‘Amnesiac.’ In the flesh, on a large scale and featuring a custom built 6-point surround system for which the music was specifically remixed, ‘KID A MNESIA’ features a narrative designed by its creators—in Thom Yorke’s words—’in which a Monster is trapped in a derelict museum of the lost & forgotten.’ Gorgeous, visceral and slightly anxiety-inducing, ‘KID A MNESIA’ is an epic wander through the masterpieces that inspired it—a time and place that 25 years ago, Radiohead cautioned us to enter at our own peril.”
