Nick Cave is currently being interviewed via Skype by RockWiz's Julia Zemiro at BIGSOUND's Music+Design conference today.
Here are the best bits, via Tweets:
Cave has "fear of failure, not being able to write, not making a record as good as the last one" when starting a new record. #bigsound

Zemiro asks about religious imagery, bringing in elements of design. Cave doesn't understand what she's talking about. #bigsound

"Why do I go on about religion in songs, do you mean?" He does have a way with words. #bigsound

Cave's suits aren't expensive. They are what he wears to work - they need to be functional. Fair enough. #BIGSOUND

He's now judging Zemiro's clothing. This is getting weird. #bigsound
