Laurie Anderson with Flo Dill

US Digging the dirt in allotment interview      14/01/26

Interviews can be quite formulaic, so the NTS series from Flo Dill is a refreshing blend of productive, self-sufficiency and learning while discussing the careers of musical artists. Here she is in conversation with Laurie Anderson, while planting some Saffron in the allotment. There is plenty to learn here for green fingered music fans, and many other interviews to explore - here's more details... 

Flo is in the greenhouse today with avant-garde artist, musician and filmmaker Laurie Anderson. Laurie is an enduring creative force who has been at the forefront of innovations in music and technology since the 1970s, including her creation of the Talking Stick and voice filters. As the pair plant out crocus sativa bulbs they compare strange counting habits, their very different takes on AI, and Laurie's time hanging out with Andy Kaufman.
