Laurie returned to the Festival – and with Artangel’s Michael Morris, shared her ideas for a major new work for The Factory
Four years after she broke ground on The Factory site and two years after she sent MIF19 To the Moon, Laurie Anderson returned to MIF for an online conversation with Michael Morris – and presented a glimpse into some of the ideas she's developing for a major new work planned for The Factory, MIF’s future year-roundhome.
Laurie Anderson is one of America’s most renowned and daring creative pioneers, best known for her multimedia presentations and innovative use of technology.
