"I was originally a sculptor and I love things that just don't fit into boxes. I'm really happy when I see that things don't fit."
(Laurie Anderson, October 2010)
KUSF Radio (San Francisco) recently aired a conversation between Laurie Anderson and radio DJ Bryan Chandler, originally recorded in October 2010. Now you can listen to the whole two-hour-long Laurie Anderson Special in KUSF Radio's online archive - with a detailed introduction to Laurie's career by Bryan Chandle.
If you are interested in only the interview, here it is, cut into three parts - I edited the songs out and did some noise reduction on the audio:
