Late last month we got our first look at the single cover artwork for Björk‘s song Crystalline, the first single from her new album Biophilia. Today we get to check out the artwork for her second single Cosmogony, which will be released on iTunes tomorrow. Additionally, the Biophilia “mother app” will also be released tomorrow that will, eventually, feature all of the tracks on the album. Click below see what the cover for Cosmogony looks like and take a listen to Björk performing the song LIVE in concert.

The latest offering from Björk’s forthcoming LP Biophilia comes in the form of “Cosmogony”. The song will be available on iTunes tomorrow (July 19th) … Also available on iTunes tomorrow will be the Biophilia app. As previously reported, the Icelandic singer-songwriter will release 10 corresponding iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad apps for the album’s 10 songs, each which will feature “an interactive game based on the song’s scientific and musical subject matter” and which will allow users to manipulate the songs in different ways (via P4k). The Biophilia app will serve as the ‘mothership,’ with the other apps gradually becoming available within it in the corresponding months. The Biophilia app is already available on iTunes’ New Zealand version and the product description offers the following words: Comprising a suite of original music and interactive, educational artworks and musical artifacts, Biophilia is released as ten in-app experiences that are accessed as you fly through a three-dimensional galaxy that accompanies the album’s theme song “Cosmogony”. All of the album’s songs gradually become available inside Biophilia as interactive experiences, beginning with the first single “Crystalline” … Biophilia opens into a three-dimensional galaxy with a compass allowing navigation between the 3-dimensional universe and a two-dimensional track list. Take a closer look by tapping on stars within the constellations and you’ll see that each is an in-app purchase that gives access to the inspired combination of artifacts for each new Björk song: interactive art and games, music notation which can be used to sing along karaoke-style, abstract animations, lyrics, and essays that explore Björk’s inspirations for the track. These artifacts bring together conventional and alternative ways of representing and making music to create an environment for entertainment and learning. Biophilia challenges the way we think about music. Here, for the first time, is a music album that exploits the multimedia capabilities of mobile interactive technologies.

Features:

• Three-dimensional galactic interface with the song “Cosmogony”
• Access to new songs and apps immediately as they are released
• Music scores with karaoke playback
• Abstract song animation
• Lyrics
• Essay

I love the whole iPad app thing … but I’m bummed I don’t have an iPad and, thus, will miss out on all the fun. I guess I’ll have to just enjoy each song as it is released until the full Biophilia album is released on September 26. You gotta hand it to Björk to make listening to new music an inventive joy.
