With David Byrne

Mary Anne Hobbs poses six burning questions to David Byrne and speaks to artist Katie Paterson about Future Library.

Mary Anne Hobbs poses six burning questions to David Byrne; everything from his love of cycling to his experience of art school.

And, as the clocks are turning back tomorrow, meet the artist who is spending her extra hour on an art project that will be 100 years in the making...

Mary Anne Hobbs meets Katie Paterson of Future Library, a project which is currently busy growing in a forest in Norway...

Paterson is gathering 100 stories from celebrated authors about 'imagination' and 'time', every year for a century.

The books will remained unpublished until the year 2114, when they will be printed on paper from the forest's trees, ready for the next generation.
