Ark Nova from the Luzern Festival.

They’ve been putting up this… ugly tent for weeks, flattening and ruining a beautiful garden for this. Why not a stage facing the lake and the city instead? In my opinion, that would be much more beautiful.

  2. If this is only temporary, what’s the point? In my opinion, they should cast it in bronze.

  11. Probably the same who came up with BlueBalls Festival.

  16. Dude, it’s a temporary concert hall that as a piece of art tours around the world. From the festival website:

    > «Music is hope», said festival director Michael Haefliger, star architect Arata Isozaki, artist Sir Anish Kapoor and concert organiser Masahide Kajimoto.

    > Together, they created the world’s first inflatable concert hall after the earthquake disaster in Fukushima: the Ark Nova, a symbol of hope. In 2013, the Ark Nova opened its doors in Japan and gave the tsunami victims a sense of optimism and a glimpse of a brighter future.

    Guess it looks like an anus during the day and like some weird insect at night, so mission fulfilled.

  17. This is unbelievably ugly. Looks like a super mario monster.

  25. It looks like the brain bug from starship troopers.
