A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON PINK FLOYD’S ALBUM IN THE HIFI PURSUIT LISTENING ROOM DREAM NO. 3

Ring in the new year with a Pink Floyd listening experience at Cooper Hewitt, presented as part of multidisciplinary artist Devon Turnbull’s latest installation, HiFi Pursuit Listening Room Dream No. 3. Visitors are invited to immerse themselves in the newly reimagined 50th-anniversary mix of Wish You Were Here, Pink Floyd’s eighth studio album, offering listeners a fresh perspective on one of the band’s most iconic and enduring works. Wish You Were Here 50 will play continuously throughout the day.

The listening room transforms Pink Floyd’s expansive, atmospheric work into a rich, textured, and intimate experience, offering music lovers, design enthusiasts, and New Year’s Day wanderers a rare opportunity to start the year with sound, emotion, and collective listening.
