Bjork truly went off the rocker. Her music is beyond unlistenable at this point. And how does she keep this up? Like from where does the revenue come from?
that's highly subjective. but i don't think she's worried about making easy-listening music; she's done that already and she's not one to repeat herself endlessly. björk is currently a composer than a pop-singer.
and there are a lot of people still interested in her work, supporting her, she's continuously performing live, and has the travelling exhibition "Björk : Digital" going around the world right now.
Bjork made music for decades during the times it actually was selling and she tours a lot. Her music is extremely acclaimed so I bet most of the designers feel like it's an honour to collaborate with her And she has a hand on a pulse for the current sound, since her collaborators are some of the most forward thinking people in the music industry. She got bored recording pop music and now does whatever the fuck she wants and she has the right to do it, it's not like her label is crafring the sound for her next album. She sits there, composes, writes from her heart. Most of her albums have a strong cohesive concept that's unlike whatever she did before.
are there any docs or short films abt being behind the scenes in haute couture studios id love to watch something showing how this work gets done and how the garments get made in another life id love to do that
if you search "making of X collection", "how X dress is made", "journey of X dress" on youtube, you'll find multiple videos from brands like chanel, dior, elie saab, etc. they're short but they usually show the entire process, from sketches to seamstresses to the actual show. i also loved "the secret world of haute couture" about the women who actually buy this stuff, it's an hour-long documentary and is also available on youtube.
