Beneath the Place Igor Stravinsky in Paris is a marvelous institution:
IRCAM, a high-tech music research center. Founded in the 1970s, this strategic cultural investment helps keep France on the technological cutting edge of the musical arts. I am in love with the concept, which I have a hard time imagining being established anywhere but France, let alone as a presidential priority! While some of the building protrudes above ground, much of it is in these brutalist concrete bunker spaces going down and down.
