Bjork and Michel Gondry to Work Together on 'Scientific Musical?'
Posted on Mar 17th 2010 7:20AM by Barnaby Smith

Bjork and director Michel Gondry, who have teamed up before to create some of the most spectacular music videos of modern times, are said to be joining forces again for a new film project.

Speaking at SXSW about his new film 'A Thorn In The Heart', Frenchman Gondry said, "We have a very ambitious project, a sort of scientific musical [it's a movie], but maybe more for museums. Like a 40-minute IMAX project in 3-D."

According to Pitchfork, Bjork's publicist has not confirmed the story, but such a thing would be fitting for the pair, who memorably combined to make Bjork's 'Bachelorette' video in 1997, which told the surreal story of a girl who finds a book buried in her garden that starts to write itself. Gondry also directed Bjork's 'Isobel', 'Hyper-Ballad' and more recently, 'Declare Independence.'

Bjork hasn't released a studio album since 2007's 'Volta', though she is contributing a song to the forthcoming Finnish children's movie, 'Moomins and the Comet Chase,' due for release later this year.

Gondry, meanwhile, has revealed his disdain for Lady Gaga, stating he is not interested in working with the singer, and that "it's hard for me to talk about it; I've seen a couple of videos of hers, and not for very long. I stop watching them each time because I don't think there's melodies. I'm sorry to be negative."

can't wait to see and hear what this collaboration will be like. i hope it's confirmed soon. björk+gondry=magic,imo.

interesting,that last bit as well....i suppose gaga is trying to wh*re her fame to maintain some sense of coolness. like that gondry isn't interested because really it is why i don't feel it from her.

^ I just read about this last week I really hope it will happen!

BjÖrk Wins Prestigious Polar Music Prize

The singer, who was recently announced to be working on a 3D film project, is to share the honour with composer Ennio Morricone. The award is handed out by the Royal Swedish Academy of Music.

“The Polar Music Prize 2010 is being awarded to Icelandic artist Björk. With her deeply personal music and lyrics, her precise arrangements and her unique voice, Björk has already made an indelible mark on pop music and modern culture at large, despite her relative youth. No other artist moves so freely between avant-garde and pop. With her albums and videos, Björk has taken avant-garde to the top of the charts. She has also always embraced technological advances, combining computers with ancient sounds. Björk has introduced an arctic temperament to popular music and shown how passionate and explosive it can be. Björk is an untameable force of nature, an artist who marches to nobody’s tune but her own.”

Both will receive a prize of £87,000 and be presented with trophies at a ceremony in Stockholm later this year.

The Polar Music Prize is Sweden’s most high-profile music award and every year is split between pop and classical artists.

Previous winners include Sir Elton John, Paul McCartney, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin.
