Radiohead Unveil ‘Kid A Mnesia’ Touring Audiovisual Installation

The project will debut inside a 17,000 square-foot underground bunker at this month's Coachella festival

Radiohead have revealed details of a new audiovisual installation centred around 2021’s Kid A Mnesia reissue, which will tour around a number of US and Mexican locations this year and into 2027.

The 75-minute installation is titled Motion Picture House, and features artwork by frontman Thom Yorke and longtime Radiohead visual collaborator Stanley Donwood, alongside music from Kid A Mnesia, the band’s combined reissue of Kid A and Amnesiac. It will debut inside a 17,000 square-foot underground bunker at this year’s Coachella festival, which gets underway this weekend and continues onto next weekend.

Following its Coachella premiere, Motion Picture House will then be exhibited at Brooklyn’s Agger Fish Building from 6 to 31 May, before moving on to Chicago’s Cinespace Studio from 30 July to 23 August. Next, it will be presented at La Maravilla Studios in Mexico City between 27 October and 15 November, before finally being showcased at San Francisco’s Palace of Fine Arts from 14 January to 7 February next year.

Motion Picture House initially debuted as a virtual-only project in 2021. The band had originally intended to present the project as a real-life installation, but COVID-19 restrictions scuppered those plans.
