J. Spaceman / Jonathan Glazer x "Ladies and Gentlemen, We Are Floating in Space"


The Creators Project asked J. Spaceman and Jonathan Glazer to put together a sound installation, re-interpreting one of my most favorite songs: "Ladies and Gentlemen, We Are Floating in Space" for Coachella. From The Creators Project:

The duo are creating a physical manifestation of the Spiritualized track “Ladies and Gentlemen, We Are Floating in Space.” In a cathedral-like space, designed by Graft Architects, isolated pools of light will appear, each containing a different component of the original track.
