David Byrne has announced he will be presenting a neuroscience art exhibition. The Talking Heads frontman is working alongside Mala Gaonkar to create the exhibit. A press release stated, “The Institute Presents: Neurosociety’ is described as “an immersive theatrical experience” that will present the work of 15 cognitive neuroscience labs.” In an interview with the New York Times Byrne explained, “We won’t be running these experiments like the labs do, but recreating some of their work in more entertaining or theatrical ways.” Byrne is optimistic about his project. In the interview he stated, “I think the labs will see there’s a way to collect data from this. Instead of a small pool of 50 students, you might get 1,000 people from different demographics.” The exhibition will be held at the Pace Gallery in Menlo Park, California and will run from October 28 to May 31.
