40 Finches Playing A Les Paul. Literally.

This is a strange one. Really strange. But brilliant too.

A new insulation at the London Barbican’s Curve by Frenchman Céleste Boursier-Mougenot is a walk-through aviary for a flock of zebra finches. So far, so what.

But the aviary is furnished with electric guitars. It turns out these birds can rock – one even goes all Jimmy Page with a twig.

See for yourself…



We especially like the added touch of the guitar-shaped water pool.
