David Byrne Is A Genius Hog

The big art news last week was how David Byrne transformed a whole building into a musical instrument. On today's episode of Boing Boing TV, Byrne gives Xeni Jardin a tour of the project so you can actually see how it works.

David Byrne should cool it with being an inventive genius for awhile and give the rest of us a chance. How am I supposed to raise funding for my project to create a fortress made entirely of hamburger meat with this going on? The meat keeps out invaders because how can you attack when it is so delicious. You're not the only one with ideas, guy.
