Ryoji Ikeda, one of the world's leading electronic composers and installation artists, will transform Park Avenue Armory's 55,000-square-foot drill hall into a dynamic digital and sonic environment, flooding the senses with projected and synchronized light and sound. Visitors to the Armory will be subsumed by a flickering landscape of binary code, black-and-white color, and digital sound-an artistic experience choreographed and composed by Ikeda from a seemingly infinite stream of raw scientific data. the transfinite marks the first time that American audiences will be able to experience the work of this multimedia artist at such a large and immersive scale.

Below is specific information on Ryoji Ikeda's project, including dates, hours, and ticketing information. In conjunction with the installation, there will be an Artist Talk with Ryoji Ikeda on Saturday, May 21 at 2PM. I hope that you will consider developing listing coverage of this vibrant experiential installation. To learn more, click here for the release or here for images.
