In a rare musical collaboration between human and avian, Ron Tran set up several musical instruments (including electric guitars and drums) in a Vancouver park and covered them with birdseed. The city’s pigeons converged on the instruments and were filmed by Tran clawing and pecking over them. Originally on DVD, the soundtrack is presented here as an audio CD. Perhaps a Messiaen composition for the 21st century.
