When one thinks of NASA, one probably doesn’t think of art, but performance artist Laurie Anderson would beg to differ. Anderson recently became the agency’s first-ever artist-in-residence after being offered “$20,000, plus unlimited access to the Johnson Space Center in Houston, the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore and more, to create a new work.” The result is “a 90-minute flow of electronic music, personal musings and melodic stories that meander from the nesting habits of gay penguins and her favourite haiku… to the latest advances in robotics and photos from the Hubble Space Telescope.”
