Via
Kottke we discover that an architect, artist duo in Los Angeles have recreated an exacting replica of the iconic,
other-worldly bedroom from Stanley Kubrick’s epic production of
2001: A Space Odyssey.

After disabling HAL,
Doctor David Bowman confronts older and younger versions of himself in this setting when he goes to investigate a mysterious
monolith in orbit around Jupiter. The bedroom film-set is in a massive warehouse transformed into an exhibition hall and thematically it is part of a series of displays meant to take visitors on a
hero’s journey, an homage to Joseph Campbell’s trope of the
monomyth.
