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: • Video • Triumph of a Heart Music Video: • Video • Interviews (Some mentioned in the video, some that helped for inspiration): • https://www.innerviews.org/inner/bjor... • https://www.uncut.co.uk/features/inte... • https://www.bjork.fr/Dazed-Confused-1996 • https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/20... • Pierrot Lunaire Performance: • Complete performance: Schoenberg's Pi... • Schoenberg Quote: https://www.schoenberg.at/index.php/e... • Inuit Throat Singing • https://www.sciencefriday.com/segment... • https://folkways.si.edu/throat-singin... • Tanya Tagaq TED Talk: • Punk Inuit throat singer | Tanya Taga... • FADER Piece: http://www.thefader.com/2016/11/11/ta... • Tanya Tagaq Interview: • Tanya Tagaq brings Animism to Studio Q • John Tavener • “The Lamb”: • John Tavener - The Lamb for Choir (S... • “Prayer of the Heart”: • Bjoerk - Prayer of the heart HQ • BBC Interview: • Towards the Musica Perennis - Sir Joh... • Rahzel • Beatbox Battle: • RAHZEL | Grand Beatbox Battle Showcas... • If Your Mother Only Knew: • Rahzel - If Your Mother Only Knew LIV... • Composers Now Clip: • RAHZEL, Composers Now Interview • Interview with Slant: https://www.slantmagazine.com/music/i... • Other Clips • Vassar Devils Performance: • The Vassar Devils – Out of the Dark • Glee Clip: • GLEE - Full Performance of ''Teenage ... • Sachs, Curt, and Jaap Kunst.
