WATCH: Bjork - Crystalline (NEW VIDEO!)

Bjork je predstavila spot za prvi singl sa njenog ambiciozno zamišljenog albuma "Biophilia" - "Crystalline". Spot je radio njen dugogodišnji saradnik Michael Gondry koji je na odličan način preneo ideju čitavog projekta - tajne kosmosa. U ovom spotu Bjork je još jednom pokazala zašto je jedna od najekstravagantnijih umetnica današnjice, te vam toplo preporučujem da pogledate.

Da podsetim, "Biophilia" će biti prvi album koji će biti objavljen kao iPad aplikacija. Svaka od deset pesama na albumu imaće svoju aplikaciju, a kako će to izgledati može se viditi na primeru "Crystalline" aplikacije, koja je već objavljena, gde se korisnik kreće kroz neonski obojene tunele, skuplja kristale i menja samu strukturu pesme. Više nego zanimljivo i veoma originalno, složićete se :)

Bjork has premiered a video for the first single from her ambitiuus album "Biophilia" - "Crystalline". The video is directed by her long-time collaborator Michael Gondry who in a perfect way showed  the idea of the entire project - secrets of the universe. In this video Bjork showed once again why she is one of the most extravagant artists today, so I truly recommend to check it out.

To remind you, "Biophilia" will be the first album released as a iPad app. Each of 10 album tracks will have its own app and how it will look like you can see in "Crystalline" app example in which in which users navigate through neon-colored tunnels and collect crystals to change the sonic structure of the song.
Very interesting and original if you ask me :)

Bjork izdaje album kao iPad aplikaciju / Bjork to release an album as iPad app

Kao što smo već najavili, novi album Bjork "Biophilia" biće objavljen za nekoliko meseci i pripreme za ovo neobično izdanje su u toku. Nedavno je sajt bjork.com redizajniran kako bi se uklopio u koncept biophilie, odnsono ljubavi prema svakom aspektu života, a pevačica je saopštila i da će svaka pesma na albumu imati svoju Ipad aplikaciju. Tako će svaku pesmu pratiti odgovarajuće vizuelne interaktivne animacije. Na primer, ako slušate pesmu "Virus", videćete viruse kako napadaju zdrave ćelije. Bjork će na vizuelnom predstavljanju ovog projekta sarađivati sa svojim dugogodišnjim saradnikom Michaelom Gondryem. Pevačica kaže da su ove aplikacije izraz muzike, priče i ideje.

Datum objavljivanja albuma još nije poznat, ali će 30. juna u Manchesteru ova umetnica održati koncert "Biophilia" tokom koje će predstaviti ovaj ceo, ambiciozno zamišljen, projekat.

As we already reported, Bjork's new album "Biophilia" will be released in a few months and her team is working hard at the moment on this huge and unusual project. Her official website bjork.com has been redesigned recently to match the concept of Biophilia - love of every aspect of life and the singer confirmed that every song on the album will have its own iPad app which means that every song will have appropriate visual and interactive animations. For instance, if you want to listen a song "Virus" you can see a video of virus attacking healthy cells. For visual presentation of this project will be responsible her long-time collaborator Michael Gondry. The singer says that these apps are expressions of music, story and idea.

The album release date is still unknown, but the artist will held her first concert in Manchester on June 30 in order to present an entire Biophilia concept, which is her most ambitious project to date. 

Björk najavila novi album i projekat "Biophilia" / Björk announces new album and project "Biophilia"

Ekscentrična pevačica sa Islanda Björk ovog leta će predstaviti svoj najambiciozniji projekat do sada, nazavan Biophilia. Reč je o nastupima koji će slaviti modernu tehnologiju. Cilj projekta je da istraži kako zvuk funkcioniše, zatim beskrajnost univerzuma, od planetarnih sistema do atomske strukture.

Premijera Biophilia koncerta biće održana na internacionalnom festivalu u Manchesteru, u Engleskoj, koji će trajati od 30. juna do 17. jula. Björk će održati šest intimnih nastupa u Campfield Market Hallu  čiji je kapacitet predviđen za 1800 ljudi. Ona će izdvoditi pesme sa novog, još neobjavljenog, albuma takođe nazvanog Biophilia sa malom grupom jedinstvenih muzičkih saradnika. Na koncertu će biti korišćeni posebno osmišljeni i izrađeni instrumenti. Među njima će biti i orgulje kojima će biti upravljano digitalnim putem, klatno dugačko 30 stopa koristiće gravitacione sile zemlje kako bi se stvorili muzički obrasci. Na ovaj način dobiće se jedinstven spoj drevnog i modernog.

Nakon premijere u Manchesteru, Björk će krenuti na Biophilia svetsku turneju. Nadam se da će posetiti i ovaj deo Evrope, jer ovo zvuči kao nešto što se ne sme propustiti!
Björk je poslednji album Volta objavila 2007. godine.

An eccentric singer from Iceland Björk will present her most ambitious project to date - Biophilia. It's about live shows that celebrate the use of modern technology. The project aims to explore ideas like how sound works, expanse of the universe, from planetary systems to atomic structures.
Biophila live show will be premiered during Manchester International Festival (June 30th - July 17th). Björk is set to perform six intimate shows in the Campfield Market Hall for audiences of 1800. She'll perform songs from her upcoming album, also titled Biophilia, with a small group of unique music collaborators. The show fill feature a range of specially conceived and crafted instruments. Among them will be a digitally-controlled pipe organ, a 30 foot pendulum that harnesses the earth’s gravitational pull to create musical patterns. In this way a unique  bridge between ancient and modern will be created.
After Manchester premiere, Björk will launch Biophilia tour. I hope that she'll visit this part of Europe. According to the description, this is something that can't be missed!
