Moving on from her relationship with Matthew Barney, “Atom Dance” is about healing and being open, and how Björk’s friendships got her through the breakup. She enlists the help of ANOHNI, a good friend who previously appeared on Volta’s “The Dull Flame of Desire” and “My Juvenile”. “Atom Dance” may be referencing the concept of quantum entanglement, AKA “spooky attachment at a distance”, where even two particles at great distances are still connected and impacting eachother.
