For the past two years iamamiwhoami has surprised, delighted and intrigued in equal measure. Beautiful and mysterious music videos began to appear online, both surreal and visually sumptuous. Speculation was rife as to who the artist in question might be whilst the videos generated millions of hits and created a huge online following. Over time the singer was discovered to be Jonna Lee, though little was known of her or her collaborators. Plaudits followed including a Swedish Grammy award for ‘Innovator of the Year’, plus nominations for two MTV online music awards in 2011 and the ‘Digital Genius Award’ this year. To date iamamiwhoami’s videos have accumulated more than 15,000,000 hits.
