Subject: [VS] Anja
I just read an interview with Anja Garbarek yesterday.
Seems like she is one step ahead of us.
She said that when's she's putting an album together, because she can't
actually
play any instruments, she goes around collecting sounds and then mixing them
together,
and then when she's happy with all the different noises, she samples them
into a
computer and manipulates them again until they sound totally different.
It also said in the interview that certains sounds evoke certain images in
her head,
and she creates storylines which her songs are eventually based on.

Where was that interview from then?
I guess she must like to work alongside her subconscious and uses a creative
form of synaesthesia. She's a bit of a hypnagogiist perhaps.

Think it was in a (free) Norwegian newspaper called Natt og Dag (or was it
Plan B?)

One of those eh! I'm going to have to pay her a visit one day and get her to
talk about it all again in English. I'm getting hooked on the ideas of the
transformations going on in her creative process. It's a form of surrealism
happening in there. It's a railroad to that other world
I've read that Bjork when she's composing goes into a state where she doesn't
make sense when she tries to talk, so the interviewer had to wait a few
minutes for her to come down to Earth (as it were)
