The news comes as Radiohead prepares to celebrate the 20th/21st anniversary of two acclaimed albums, 2000's Kid A and 2001's Amnesia, with an upcoming reissue, Kid A Mnesia, which will release on Nov. The result is the experience's high point and is something that I wish I could see again for the first time.According to Sony, Kid A Mnesia Exhibition is 'an upside-down digital/analogue universe created from original artwork and recordings to commemorate 21 years of Radiohead’s Kid A and Amnesiac.' Aside from that tiny bit of info, though, Radiohead fans will be left wondering about this new apparent interactive experience. Rather than walking through a certain location while hearing these songs play around you, Kid A Mnesia Exhibition essentially removes the controls from your hands and forces you to experience a three-part visual spectacle. Perhaps no other moment in the game better exemplifies this than one where you experience visual setpieces for 'How to Disappear Completely,' 'Pyramid Song,' and 'You And Whose Army?' in succession. And yet, despite this, hearing these songs broken down and being presented in an all-new manner made me feel like I was experiencing Kid A and Amnesiac for the first time. Every song that is included in this game is one that I've heard a thousand times before either via Spotify or in-person at an actual Radiohead concert. What surprised me more than anything about Kid A Mnesia Exhibition is that I found myself getting oddly emotional while playing it. The entirety of Kid A Mnesia Exhibition is like this, too, with different sections of songs being used to lure you throughout this bizarre locale you find yourself within.

As you notice a door off in the distance and start to inch toward it, the early stages of 'Everything In Its Right Place' start to creep in before eventually kicking into full gear once you cross a certain threshold. For instance, when Kid A Mnesia Exhibition first starts off, you find yourself in a forest with no music being played. Rather than simply walking from one room to the next and hearing a certain track from Kid A or Amnesiac, the experience often layers in different musical elements from songs to lead you along a certain path. One of the coolest things about Kid A Mnesia Exhibition is how it stitches together these different environments. Another area could have you floating through a large, blue tunnel while hearing 'Like Spinning Plates.'

Each exhibit tends to feature a single track from Kid A or Amnesiac that is usually accompanied by a bizarre environment of some sort. The entirety of the game takes place in a rather labyrinthine environment that helps guide you from one experience to the next. To best explain what Kid A Mnesia Exhibition even is, think of it like a musical museum where you get to walk about and experience different Radiohead songs as various exhibits.
