Biophilia
, a work by Icelandic recording artist Björk
that was the first-ever album app upon its release in 2011, has been
inducted into the permanent collection of the
Museum of Modern Art in New York. It's the first time an app has been included in the
collection.
In the app,
Biophilia
's songs were turned into a series of discrete mini
games, which allowed the listener to interact with the songs
– sometimes purely playfully, in other cases being able to rework the
material. Björk commissioned a series of developers who made her then favorite apps, bringing them together in Iceland to collaborate.
It joins a host of more tangible objects in the museum's design collection. MORE
