Bjork

There's no map to human behaviour.

With my projects, I really like the extreme high-tech stuff, but I also like the other end, the acoustic things. So it seems like those meet on an iPad, where you make shapes but the sounds coming out of it are really acoustic.

Now that rock is turning 50, it's become classical in itself. It's interesting to see that development.

My first album didn't come out until I was 27, which in pop years is late, you know. But when it came time to arrange it, I became a kid in a toy shop. I had a harp and a saxophone quartet and a symphony orchestra. I went berserk for a time.

A lot of the time I get obsessed by little nerdy things in my corner that no one else is interested in. I have that nerd factor in my character.

I do believe sometimes discipline is very important. I'm not just lying around like a lazy cow all the time.

Maybe I'll be a feminist in my old age.

Believe it or not, I'm a bit clumsy with technology. It's probably why I'm so excited about the touchscreen - even an idiot can use it!

Feminists bore me to death. I follow my instinct and if that supports young girls in any way, great. But I'd rather they saw it more as a lesson about following their own instincts rather than imitating somebody.

There is such a big chunk of me that is David Attenborough. I think he is my biggest inspiration.

I've always appreciated working with people I have chemistry with, who are friends, and where you feel that the work is growing while you are getting to know each other better.

I get embarrassed listening to my last CDs. I've got a lot of work to do, let's put it that way.
