The first thing you realise when you sit down to interview Grimes aka Claire Boucher, the extraordinary Canadian singer/songwriter/performer/artist – is that you have to surrender to Grimes World. You will not have anything close to a normal/mundane opening chat about where she’s staying and whether she’s found that new Korean eaterie around the corner. Within seconds you step into this other-worldly place that meanders fascinatingly from US politics to the feminism/Game Of Thrones debate via Harry Potter and the classic sci-fi novel Dune to video on iPhone. It’s a discussion that could never-ever end, the kind that you might have at 4am after a drunken night out, rather than at 12pm in a corporate hotel lobby in west London.
We first meet just as the InStyle cover shoot is closing. Boucher’s cheeks are brushed with an exaggerated pink blush that gives her skin a beautiful surreal flush. Her hair is white blonde, her frame toned and tiny like an athletic contemporary dancer. I’ve brought along a 15-year old girl who has been doing work experience at the magazine and she greets both of us with an enthusiastic ‘Hello’ and strong handshake. This is the first women’s fashion magazine cover shoot Boucher has ever done. As the front-woman for Stella McCartney’s new fragrance POP, this is all part of the deal. But unlike other ‘faces’ who just go along with what they&rsquo

The Fractal Immortality of Grimes
I thought my interview with Grimes-the mysterious techno artist, fan of all nerddom, and the deepest of insiders in Elon Musk's world-would be one-on-one. Instead it wound up as a roundtable discussion. Turns out there are multiple personas embedded in the surprisingly haimish human who sat under a tree with me and spent the waning hours of an afternoon in conversation. There was Claire Boucher, the given name of a Vancouver kid obsessed with video games and devoted to provoking adults with misbehavior and the embrace of taboo subjects. There was Grimes, the self-invented, scrappy DIY musician and provocateur who weaves sci-fi into her work and released what Pitchfork judged to be the second-best song of the 2010s. And there was her preferred nomenclature, "c," invoking the speed of light
