I open a curtain and step into an unknown world that reveals phrases, objects, and thoughts from one of the most iconic figures of all time: Salvador Dalí. Artisanal pieces, lights, mappings, technology, and virtual reality combine masterfully throughout a journey that surprises at every turn. I am talking about Dalí Cybernetic Boulevard, a permanent immersive experience dedicated to the Catalan genius that can be seen at Casa Amatller (Passeig de Gràcia, 41, Barcelona). This project recovers and expands with new content the material from the original exhibition, Dalí Cybernetic, premiered in 2022 by the Ideal Centre d'Arts Digitals.

The Ideal Centre for Digital Arts inaugurates this Friday, November 6th Dinosaurium, an immersive experience that combines art, science, and technology to reconstruct the ecosystem of the dinosaurs. The production, which has the scientific advice of researchers from the Catalan Institute of Paleontology Miquel Crusafont (ICP), proposes a route of more than 2,000 m² distributed across seven spaces. The proposal reopens the Ideal space in Poblenou, after eight months of renovation, with the immersive room, the metaverse, and the interactive spaces updated, and has incorporated 400 m² previously intended for internal use to create a new virtual reality room in 360° format.

Some of the things we hope not to miss in the next seven days

I will listen to Charli XCX's new album. Music, fashion, film is the eighth album by the British pop star and a new, more rock-oriented turn in her prolific career. After dominating with the Brat summer, Charli Aitchison abandons green and embraces black and white to remain almost the only singer of her generation who plays with the mainstream while navigating the margins and experimentation. A singer who is living her particular artistic zenith, having more fun than anyone.

I will finish McCartney: the hunt for the lost bass, about the mysterious disappearance and recovery of Paul McCartney's first bass, a Höfner 500/1 bought in Hamburg in 1961 for only 30 pounds. This marvel sounded on the original recordings of Love me do, she loves you and the early Beatles classics. A road movie musical about the greatest pop group of all time.

I will repeat the great experience of eating at Cal Vermell, in Gósol. If the Pedraforca had a specific taste, it would be that of the cuisine of this small and cozy restaurant, which works with seasonal mushrooms like a gastronomic goldsmith. Tradition and modernity meet in their starters (order the scrambled mushrooms with egg and parmentier and the artichokes) and in the main courses, especially in their rice dishes that make you want to mop up the sauce with bread. An extraordinary find.
