This is quite splendidly mad and I utterly approve: At the Barbican, Céleste Boursier-Mougenot has set up a walk-through aviary for zebra finches, with electric guitars and other instruments and objects. As the birds go about their daily routine (perching, feeding and so on) their presence on the various pieces of equipment creates a live soundscape. Fabulous.
