One of my favorite artists. I'm going to admit that I haven't explored the whole forum to see if she's mentioned as a type or visually read.
I think she uses Fe-Ti because of her smiles (even if she has a constant warmth that I've seen mentioned in Fi dominants' VR) I also think she's PiFe I struggle with the eyes, but they look curious and soft to me (Ne-Si?) She does not scowl or blink as much as I would imagine for a SiFe and she's not a good articulator I wouldn't be surprised if you see FiNe because I also see internally receding energy with an airy, ethereal presence

Her finctions seem to be Ne>Si Fi>Te. Ne naive eyes that gently scans the environment without locking-on, some rare few Si scows, Fi tensed cheeks...
Innocent Heavy Fi. I believe she's P-lead but I am not sure. My guess at the moment is NeFi (but I din't think FiNe is impossible). But don't take it very seriously cause lately I have done clumsy wrong typings.
Yes, this (wide smile + tension in cheeks) makes me remember Gotye's thread (check it out). I initially thought he was a Ti/Fe user because of his wide smile that seems to rise towas the ears but then Erifrail showed us that Gotye does things with his cheeks that Fe users aren't able to do (not even if they try hard).
Hey guys! Reopening this thread because Bjork ("it rhymes with 'jerk'" <-- favourite Bjork quote) is one of my favourite ever artists and I am pretty sure I've figured out her typing.
Sooo..... Starting with the cues. Like with Neil Gaiman, the thing I most notice about Bjork is her eyes oscillating between locked-on stares and side-drifting/searching. I think trying to determine her eyes by using the soft/penetrating thing is difficult because of the unusual shape of her eyes. But if you look at the first video you can see how she goes between holding her eyes steady in the direction of the interviewer and drifting to the side. Timestamps: 00:44-48 for locked-on eyes, also at 00:51-54. A sidedrift at 00:59-01:02, and... abundantly thereafter
You can see how she doesn't hold tension in her cheeks when she's not smiling, for instance at 02:32 in the first video, and in the second video at 00:14, 00:34, 00:48. She does have pronounced lines around her mouth coming from the nose -- much like Barack Obama, another Fe/Ti user -- which can mislead one into thinking that she is holding tension there, but you can see how, apart from these lines, her face goes flat and somewhat 'dead' inbetween expressing. Continuing with the Fe cues, you can see warming, interpersonal head nods in the first video at 01:25, which break into a wide, interpersonal smile that doesn't go up towards the nose. There's another warming headnod/smile combination at 01:46. A Te/Fi headnod would be much shorter, snappier, and 'colder', as demonstrated in the TeNi Larin Series video.
So, Fe/Ti, and Ni/Se. Which lead? All those sidedrifts are a P-lead cue. Does she show other P-lead cues? Viscous sways, intertial energy, and eye-centricness (-centricity? -centricicity?)? I would say definitely to the intertial energy -- which I'm starting to think is something that gets confused with Ji-lead a lot, looking around the forum. (The thing that helped me clarify is looking at the GIFs on the old physiognomy website (hat tip to emotionallogic). See how the Ji-lead energy is kinda quietly crisp, whereas the Pi-lead is quietly bobbing?). As for the eyecentricity, let's take 1:14-1;35 in the second video as an example. See how her face doesn't move as a single unit? P-lead! See Morgan Freeman in the NiFe video for another good example of this! Viscous sways... I still struggle to identify these, so I'll skip that one. (If someone can point some out to me with the timestamps, and possibly also explain them a bit, I'd be incredibly appreciative!)
Okay, so I already gave it away with the Morgan Freeman reference, but I am absolutely convinced that Bjork is a NiFe! (Or, a Schrodinger's Cat, as me and emotionallogic would say. You can totally see her as a Schrodinger's Cat, right? )
Edited to add:NingenExp -- I didn't properly pay attention when I was reading your first post, and so only just saw that you guessed PiFe... Which is so cool, because she totally is PiFe!! Those eyes were definitely difficult to type and I don't know that I would have got it except for having just been following through on emotionallogic's typing of Neil Gaiman as a NiFe. If I was looking for soft vs piercing I totally would have gone with soft, but actually the clues were in the lock-ons! Oh! And I just looked at the first video again, and notice how she also does the Ni zoning-out? An example in V1 at 1:00. YAY PIFE!

El Puente, I didn't read the whole post - the links just scared me - but I disagree with NiFe. I agree with @morsecode, though I find FiNe most likely. I clicked on the second video first, and the first thing I noticed was seelie Fi in her voice.
"we're fumbling fools ignorant of ourselves" - Auburn "the depths of dark Fe can go beyond our deepest fears" - Commakaze
Linus Oh man, not another massive typing fail! I feel I am going to be employing the phrase, "One lives and learns," quite a lot in the coming weeks . Going to go study up on FiNe and NeFi!
It seems that Heron typed her as NeFi in the pinboard thread. I've not watched enough of her interviews to be sure but it's a possibility, her eyes do catch my attention. However FiNe would'nt surprise me either.
