Multimedia sensation: New York's Park Avenue Armory stages Tree of CodesWayne McGregor has produced a stage version of Jonathan Safran Foer's 2010 novel Tree of Codes, choreographed in creative partnership with Olafur Eliasson, who came up with a visual concept, and Jamie xx, who composed the music. Over the course of a weeklong run, the Park Avenue Armory in New York staged the 90-minute performance that resulted from this coming-together of three people at the top of their artistic fields. Like the book that inspired it, Tree of Codes, as a performance, defies easy category – part dance, part art installation, and part music event.
