Ahh, Björk. Is there anyone who can resist her? The Icelandic artist has been thrilling and weirding us out for nearly three decades. She's a visionary, a female Bowie, a folk heroine, a mother, a lover, a fighter. And then there's the music. Straddling pop, electro, rock, trip-hop and classical, she creates sore, soaring anthems, intimate and enormous, with a bleeding heart and a Nordic yearning for land.

Luckily for London, camp Björk are putting on a virtual reality exhibition at Somerset House – as well as a one-off gig at the Royal Albert Hall.

Björk Digital, which is running at Somerset House for two months, is the result of the singer's collaboration with a host of artists and producers. And it's pretty weird. There are immersive films, virtual reality 360-degree goggles, and the opportunity to sit inside Björk's mouth as she sings. Yes really.

We're most excited, though, about her one-off Royal Albert Hall concert on Wednesday 21 September 2016. Björk is seriously stunning live, whether you're a super-fan or not. Luckily for those of us that missed out on tickets, virtual reality is the next best thing.
