EXAMINING: Björk’s Medúlla

TWITTER: LISTEN: SUPPORT: Even in a discography as varied as hers, Bjork’s 2004 album Medulla stands out - mostly because it’s entirely performed using the voice. In this episode of EXAMINING, let’s take a look at the album’s various influences and collaborators to understand how it came together, and what it has to say about the capabilities of the human voice. (I’m also playing with a new format specifically for this video. I don’t plan on using it often - if ever again - but if you like/dislike it for any constructive reason, let me know.) (Correction: Bjork gave birth to her SECOND child just before Medulla released, not her first.) SOURCES: - Documentary on the Making of Medulla: - Triumph of a Heart Music Video:
