Kórsafn

Microsoft

[2.20.002]

More Info

Icelandic artist Björk has opened up her archives to showcase some of the choral arrangements that she’s created over the course of her career. Collaborating with New York’s design-centric Sister City hotel and Microsoft, the result is Kórsafn – an AI-powered composition that builds on the generative soundscape concept that Sister City launched with Julianna Barwick in 2019. In Icelandic, “kór” = “choral,” and “safn” = “archives.”

Masashi Kawamura: “I‘ve not actually experienced this as an installation, but felt the forever changing song is a beautiful concept. And hey, it’s Björk.”
