Grimes, whose real name is Claire Boucher, was born in Canada and is a singer, songwriter, and producer. She recently released her latest album, "Miss Anthropocene. She attended a school that specialized in creative arts, but didn't focus on music until she started attending McGill University in Montreal.

A friend persuaded Grimes to sing backing vocals for his band, and she found it incredibly easy to hit all the right notes. She had another friend show her how to use GarageBand and started recording music. Grimes has been described as an electronic-pop artist, whose music is "dark and ethereal, catchy and strange.

In , Grimes released a cassette-only album called "Geidi Primes. Eventually, she dropped out of McGill to focus on music. In , Grimes signed to the British indie label 4AD and released "Visions," which would become a breakout success. Two years later, Pitchfork named "Oblivion" the best song of the decade so far. Grimes signed with Jay-Z's management company, Roc Nation, in As she worked on the follow-up album to her widely acclaimed "Visions" album, Grimes considered a move to Billboard-charting pop music.

She even wrote a song in for Rihanna, who ended up not putting the song on her album. Grimes released the song herself, but fans were upset she was "pandering to the radio.

She heads up a flight of polished dark-wood stairs, clutching a cup of tea. Her computer sits on a cheap folding table, framed by a pair of high-end speakers she recently obtained in a barter with a friend, producer BloodPop of Lady Gaga fame. She squints at the sunlight and at the decidedly noncloset-y luxury of it all.

She, c, is one of the most thoroughly online people on Earth, a pure glowing creature of the internet. She talks faster and with fewer pauses than most humans, like a podcast played at 2x speed. Even her high-pitched, ebullient laugh sounds sped up.

She loves to ponder the possibilities of artificial intelligences taking over the creation of art not to mention the rest of human society , and is drawn not only to synthesizers but to the synthetic, from virtual reality to hair dye: Her hair is currently black at the roots, transitioning into a bit of blond, then pink on top, with an orange ponytail.

She even, somehow, loves the artificiality of the chemical-oozing air fresheners favored by Uber drivers. She sometimes seems like an art-making AI in her own right, having swallowed whole a dauntingly wide variety of cultural references, from anime to Bollywood to old superhero comics. She has real affection for Corgan as a person. The internet has been her friend since seventh grade or so, when, she admits with some guilt, she used it to cyberbully a teacher. Grimes was one of the last artists to benefit from the blog boom of the early s — she still remembers that her first two pieces of press for her early music came from the blogs Gorilla vs.

If you stare long enough at the digital abyss, it will stare back at you, and eventually, it might not like what it sees. And I think this is the crux of most of the rage. Society is in this big fight to change.

A lot of the furor seems to have died down, anyway, especially in the wake of positive reception to Miss Anthropocene. It helps that she has a sense of humor, which even some of her fans seem to miss. We like it. Nice Christine It is a great piece. The instructions need a little more to help putting together. Maybe like a video or something. Took it apart 3 times before getting it right. But once I got it right. Lots of space for hanging and cubes to store stuff.

I love it. Love it cindy Love it 5. Useful Amy This is a great storage cabinet. I like the versatility of it. However, putting it together was a challenge. The pieces are unmarked and I had to do a lot of guessing as to which parts went together. Skip listing. Read More Read less. Material What is particleboard? Color White. Add to bag.

And when I first read Ameen's email about it I thought it was just like. PJ: Alright. But when he was in college he used to always go and study at this one desk in the library. And the reason he liked that desk was because it had like etched into it all of these different weird phrases and sentences. It was like, "Satan and meth make one great apple pie. PJ: "Satan and meth make one great apple pie? So, it's all these like weird things and so he'd like work and enjoy them.

It, it, it just read--and this is totally different from everything else that was on there--it said, "Love, dishonor, marry, die, Cherish perish, never cry. I am looking for a guy. ALEX: That's intense. PJ: The. PHIA: His, his, yeah, his last book. PJ: That book's really good.

Went back to the desk and scratched into it, "May not be the one you seek, though not meek I must repeat, this form of language is rather neat, intriguing in fact but I must admit defeat. I can not rhyme even for a dime.

ALEX: That's nice. PHIA: And so then a couple days go by. Ameen waits. And on the desk is then scratched, "Faster than birds, better than mail, table top scribblings, could work in hell. Drop me a line, nearly any time. I'm not clever enough to write something in response. And, every time I would load up my browser and load up Gmail and try to send it I'd just go, "uuuhhh. ALEX: Whoa. ALEX: Yeah, he doesn't have to rhyme. PJ: They're, they've, they're breaking into prose.

PHIA: Well, since then he got a girlfriend, like he's in a relationship now. And so he's like not hoping to romantically connect with the person on the desk but he's still just like so curious who it is. So, i talked to him this morning. He said he was going to write. He wrote. PJ: And. PHIA: Here's what he wrote. Of desk scribblings embedded by nails. Apologies are in order. My lackluster rate of response has brought me to the border of almost insanity and opportunity to connect is all I ask.

So happily taken I cannot mask a keen interest in your ability to rhyme. Hurry, we are almost out of time. It is the year heading towards the month of May. I hope this reaches you before Email Debt Forgiveness Day. And then. PJ: And then. So I spend all day, after I sent you that email, saying like, basically like texting and Facebook messaging everyone that went to my school asking if anybody knew about this desk or if they wrote this or wrote that.

And after like six or seven hours I, I get no real response. I'm just like, uh. So my girlfriend comes back home from so I ask her about it and she's like, "Oh, yeah. That was me. PHIA: Oh, my. And then it all kind of turned out so. PHIA: Did she know, did she know it was you? And I could not imagine her doing that in a million years. And it just, I, oh I was so freaked out by it when she told me. PJ: And this is real? PHIA: I know. When Ameen first told me this I was like, "This is crazy.

Too good to be real. PHIA: Did you know she used that desk? I had no idea. PHIA: Is this changing your view of the world? It kind of feels like it should.
