"[unknown title]"


In the beginning, she defines herself as a post-modern hippie.

T. : In a sense Post is a strange album, rude, almost dark....

B. : Personally I think that albums which express only one emotion, are 
boring. Post is a fearless album; it talks about the emotions of a girl 
who left her home, her city, and faces a new and unexplored world.

T. : I'm struck by one of your songs, Modern Things, which I think is 
very delicate, quiet, and sometimes funny, in any case different from 
your works. When you wrote it what did you seek for inspiration?

B. : I wrote M.T. thinking about all the pessimistic people who live 
around me. It saw the light on the London-Manchester train. I was 
admiring those beautiful mountains that surround me, and I was listening 
to people groan about modern things, modern situations, and that one day 
everyone will die...it was so terrible!! I think that our days are 
beautiful, full of splendid inventions like cars, phones, cameras, and 
all the rest.

T. : What sort of relationships do you take with your collaborators?

B. : I think that I could do all the work alone, but I do not, because 
the people with whom I work, stimulate me. I'm something like a social 
group where people come and help me, especially when I meet people that 
stimulate my brain working. It's wonderful when you finish something 
knowing that everyone gave their best.

T. : Your videos are so original, that they remain easily impressed in 
memory, what is your relationship with photo and camera?

B. : I love seeing things from all points of view. I'm always searching 
for new things, better if original. I love photography, cinema, videos 
and television - actually you could be a potential subject for camera, 
recopied, cut, framed in the strangest way and manner.
