PITCHFORK: The internet makes it pretty easy to discover cool things and curate them as influences. Are you worried about coming across as merely topical?
CLAIRE BOUCHER (A.K.A GRIMES): My great fear is that I’m the ultimate shallow person. I think about this kind of thing a lot, and about this phenomenon in our culture where people identify themselves with their interests. I’ve been trying not to think about it too much. It used to really upset me when people called me “witch house.” And then one day I thought, “But I did make a witch house record, whether I like it or not. Boo-hoo.”
Instead of thinking about whether or not I’m credited with really liking K-pop first or following a trend or whatever— fuck it. Let it go. It’s not important. I feel like all of these people are always competing to be the first person who knows the most about the most obscure things, but it’s all great stuff that everyone should take part in. I love going through people’s Tumblrs. It’s people just reveling in all the beauty that the internet is bringing forth for everyone to see. Just because something might not have a deep philosophical meaning doesn’t mean it’s not important or relevant.

I see this [slowed down, purposeful interaction] as the art in a way, and the photograph is a document of that. So it’s kind of this event that takes place that, really, the viewer doesn’t experience––but they experience the idea of it.
