Björk on Mushrooms and the Meaning Behind Her New Album Fossora | Pitchfork

No other artist on this planet could get away with "my fungus period has been bubbly".

This woman is almost sixty, yet still talks with the wide eyed enthusiastic curiosity and optimism of a teenaged girl. She never forgot her childhood, just paired it with her adult experience, and the skills that came with it. That's why she's timeless

I love how she can describe a "tree root album" with such certainty on how it would sound.

I love the end bit “are you coming?” 😂

Bjork is one of those rare people in life that found exactly what they were destined to do

Bjork is one in a planet. A massive artistic influence, still pushing boundaries

Just imagine passing a day with Bjork , walking around with one of her outfits , talking about vulcanos and children and sound and earth and cooking . What an amazing day .

The editing on this is TOP tier. The way she tells her process is so captivating and mixed with this fun editing is just perfection, so enjoyable. As a Björk fan, huge thanks for this!

I just love hearing the creative process behind a genius like her.

I had the pleasure of meeting her on a school trip when she was developing her Biophilia app, she’s so sweet and I’ll always cherish that memory

Bjork is an example of someone who is all in on their art. A wonderful person

Her ability to vocalize so well....that is a skill, all in it's own. Ty for this.

She’s so right, fungi are my favorite organisms on the planet and it’s also the largest. Mycelium is such a beautiful thing and what I find so special about it is the way mycelium communicates with each other. People see trees as being this mystical thing and that they all communicate with each other and know who the mother tree is, and with fungi it’s even more so and deeper. Also psychedelics are fun and good for the soul when you’re in the right place. And plenty of other mushroom species have amazing health benefits and taste great.

good for her making a happy album during troubling times! so excited for Fossora<3

She’s timeless. Truly a magical artist.

ugh i could just listen to her talk for HOURS 😩 she’s really giving us everything this era though, i couldn’t be more excited for what’s to come! the podcasts are wonderful too. i mean what else can i say? she’s BEEN a legend

Thanks Bjork for continuing your musical life journey and sharing it with the world.
