Birds on a Musical Wire
Birds called Zebra Finches fly to and from an electric guitar at an art installation in the Barbican’s Curve Gallery, London, on February 26, 2010. The installation is a walk through aviary in gallery space inhabited by 40 Zebra Finches, created by French artist Celeste Boursier-Mougenot. The birds fly freely from bass guitars, guitars and cymbals as they feed and perch creating sounds as they move along the instruments which amplify the sounds through loudspeakers.
