Dernier concert intimiste en configuration centrale pour Biophilia.
Björk à propos de ce concert
im mushy and proud to be doing the last biophilia show in-the-round in california tonight . so far we´ve done manchester , reykjavík , new york , buenos aires and paris . only city left is tokyo .
biophilia has been a rewarding , complex and fertile beast . i feel at this point that the place where it has been at it´s best is the apps ( still cant believe we did that ! so fun ! ) the educational program for the kids where it really took off internationally and in the round shows . i´ve realized that this project is kinda my opera , quite theatrical and the ideal setting for it is amongst the instruments that were specially made for it and played for a small crowd who kinda merge with the choir and the musicians . to do it in the round is essential somehow , then there is no front and no back and and people can swirl in orbit around the stage , take a look at the pendulums and take part .
there will be some festival shows as well this summer , but they are different , more older songs mixed in , less biophilia . but fun ! im especially excited about the canadian festivals with mykki blanco and deathgrips !!
thanks AMERICA in-the-round ( north and south ) , you´ve been mental !!
ASIA , here i come !!
warmth and gratitude
