Motion Picture House: Kid A Mnesia arrived at Coachella to a rave reception, and now it’s on the move. Radiohead and AEG have expanded the large-scale audiovisual installation’s Brooklyn run through the end of June, added new cities, and introduced a college student discount program that makes the experience accessible to a whole new audience.
The installation itself is built around ‘Kid A Mnesia,’ a film assembled from the artwork Thom Yorke and Stanley Donwood created during the making of ‘Kid A’ and ‘Amnesiac,’ set to a soundtrack drawn from the original multitracks of both albums. Full-scale gallery installations featuring artwork from that era round out the experience. It’s an immersive encounter with 2 of the most influential albums in modern rock history, presented at a scale those records deserve.
The Brooklyn run at the Agger Fish Building now extends through June 28th, with Wednesday showings added alongside the existing Thursday through Sunday schedule. That Wednesday slot carries a 30 percent discount for anyone with a .edu email address, a program that applies to every city on the tour. Students can register for the discount directly through the Motion Picture House ticketing portal.
The full touring schedule takes the installation to 4 cities across North America, closing with a run at San Francisco’s Palace of Fine Arts.
