fans can set the controls for the heart of Hollywood Blvd. now that a touring version of an exhibition devoted to the group’s 55-year history has touched down in the U.S. following a celebrated run across Europe.

The fact that Powell and co-curator Paula Webb Stainton were finding new items to add even during quarantine — while the plan to bring “These Mortal Remains” from Europe to the U.S. got put on hold — speaks to a wealth of essentials and ephemera that the two programmers point out changes a bit from showing to showing.

“We also had a hologram of ‘Dark Side of the Moon’ that revolved in a space where you listened to it in 360 degrees,” says Powell of the London version, “and as great as it looked, unfortunately, people would sit there for hours watching everything, the whole album through, once, twice, three times. It was like, get out! it was not a very good idea.” “No, no, ” laughs Webb Stainton in agreement. “Some people were in there for four or six hours.

Audio-visual elements allow attendees to take a deeper dive by watching short films about periods in the band’s history on headsets provided at entry. What may be of the most interest to some is the thought and practicality that went into Floyd’s most famous album covers. Powell, with his Hipgnosis partner Thorgerson, worked on all of them from the second album, “Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun,” through 1977’s “Animals.
