Creation comes out of vulnerability

Björk to Timothy Morton:


"Hi Timothy,

I wanted to write this letter for a long time.
I have been reading your books for a while and I like them a lot.
Next year there will be a MoMA exhibition on my work including a book.
I was wondering if you’d be interested in taking part in it?
Warmth, Björk.”

Timothy Morton to Björk:

“Dear Björk,

It was very kind of you to write to me, and I’m very touched by your kind words.
I am always quite surprised anyone reads my stuff!
I would be thrilled to be part of the MoMA catalogue.
Your work has been a very deep influence on my way of thinking and life in general.
I like to be given homework in terms of what to write (perpetual student!), so do tell me more about what specifications you might like.
It truly seems to me that there is some kind of shift happening towards ecological awareness – not just in terms of PR for the science.
I have heard this in your work since I started to listen to it.

Yours, Tim”

The rest is here.
