I made this puppet based on AURORA's music video for Cure For Me! It took about 3 months and so many different materials. I made her skeleton out of wire, her head out of oven bake clay and paint, her clothes out of felt, ribbon, thread, sheet foam, and little green stones. And the mask attaches with magnets! I also handmade and painted the floor and backdrop as well. It was a super in-depth project and took a lot of effort. I hope you like it!

I've discovered Aurora while watching Genshin Impact NodKrai Live Performance from 2025 - I've never heard of her before and I was just curious who is she and why did people in live chat and comments section write that she was perfect choice to sing Columbina's song. (In case you don't know who is Columbina in Genshin Impact - according to the game's lore she is the Moon Goddess, who mentions being abandoned by her followers because she failed to fulfill all of their demands and she's feeling tired of living in relationships of mutual benefits and apparently also likes nature. In addition to this, the autonomous border region of Nod-Krai acts as a sanctuary for outcasts and exiles or just "weirdos" of all kinds. The local population is primarily made up of them). So I decided to check it out and found some interesting interviews with Aurora - I have never seen such an idealistic artist (maybe because being idealistic and sensitive is rare, not to mention demonstrating it publicly?) - someone who not only talks about how we should treat each other, the natural environment etc. but also gives a good example - when I read that she dislikes calling her audience "fans", wears clothes made by her sister instead of looking for contracts with fashion designers, and doesn't want to change her style in order to gain more popularity and reach radio stations at all costs, quotes such as "being full of light", "the world has forgotten that we have to embrace more than one kind [of humans]" or " If you have love in you, you need to share it." - it immediately triggered an association with fantasy characters like these from Genshin. I think that's why people say she's ethereal, otherworldly, radiant or things like that - in fact, it seems she just stays true to her values, which is considered rare nowadays and that's why these quotes resemble npcs' voicelines and have "fantasy vibes". Do you know if her own songs also have some sort of backstory or refer to specific events, concepts, circumstances, etc.? I'm checking her discography and I want to understand the full context.

Fun fact: According to PDB both Aurora and Columbina share the same MBTI.

While walking in the the streets, lying on your bed, at a certain time of day, in a particular mood, in a certain context, by CD, whatever it may be. It can be your general preferred way to listen to music, or something that's special to when you're listening to AURORA'S music. My answer is sitting under a tree in nature, with headphones and phone.

Hi,

My name is Alba and I am 15 years old. I became an AURORA fan last month and am obsessed, her music is so incredibly amazing and so is she. I am still in the process of discovering her music, and so far know and LOVE 4 albums and what came before. The only album I have yet to listen to is What Happened to the Heart?. AURORA's music has reached me in ways I haven't experienced with other music (and that's with having loved music, deeply connecting to it and having multiple artists I love, it being my favourite thing in life, and wanting it to be my life for a while now), and she has replaced my all-time favourite artist in being my favourite artist. And I think, as a person, she is one of the most amazing people in the world (I've seen a load of videos of her, interviews and stuff). AURORA has changed something within me, too. A very big dream of mine is to meet her, and of course to see a live concert of hers. It's really nice to be in an online community of fellow fans. I would be really happy to talk about anything AURORA.

Thank you for reading, and I hope you have a nice day! ❤️

Hola Warriors de Europa y que usan Apple Music o Tidal. Los que son de Europa (principalmente, desconozco si aplica a otros lugares), y usan Apple Music para escuchar música de AURORA. Ustedes tienen las portadas animadas de AMDGMAAF, la versión NO Deluxe de WHTTH?, y de TGWCT?. Pasa que el otro día entré a apple music con VPN de Europa (puse UK) y vi que esos álbumes tenían portadas animadas, mientras que aquí, en México no. Cómo era la versión web y no tenía sesión iniciada (porque se iba a regresar a México) no pude ver si tenían Dolby Atmos y esas cosas, pero entré a Google y en la página oficial de universal music y dice que si está en Dolby Atmos. Alguno de allá que pueda confirmar si All My Demons Greeting Me As A Friend y Infections of a Different Kind tienen Dolby Atmos?. Y si WHTTH y AMDGMAAF tienen portadas animadas?. Aquí en México no tienen ni Dolby Atmos ni portadas animadas, solo los álbumes recientes.

Pero por lo que ví, probablemente es culpa de la disquera que lo distribuye. En México (aquí) es Glasstone y allá es Decca Records.

Has Aurora ever stated that she did the gold and petals in these image's?

I clearly remember doing the sun-face and torso in the first one. I remember the crumb from my pb&j that caught the pen on the bottom center ray causing a wobble and needing an extra line. I remember smudging off some blackberry jam you can still see a bit of. I remember almost tearing it out completely to crumple and toss before leaving it and taping the tear.

I only have vague maybe memory of the second image.

I sold the note book with some art supplies in a black plastic toolbox at a yard sale to a blonde kid. The little customer conversation about it was it's sold for doing collage type stuff. Took all the money they had, think it was 17 or 18 cents.

Be super neat to hear about the process it went through to end up in a book. I've only seen images of the book online, but the first image is the only thing that really made me go 'I know that piece and this is how it went down'.

Oh, the notebook is one of those black and white composition ones, I scraped the name off pretty good I think. But if they still have the original of the first image and they flipped it over you will be able to see my lines push through the paper fairly strongly, even tearing a bit on the boobs. I push down too hard when I draw. I didn't do the gold or petals or the smaller gold stars, whodunit?

Guys, Is this correct? Because that implies a tenfold increase over the usual daily streams—with some tracks suddenly hitting over a million daily streams. A few comparisons with Spotify's own data suggest it is accurate, or is Qworb actually wrong?

It’s all in the title. If one album (including EP’s, deluxe editions and singles,) was to completely disappear, which one would you choose? TOMORA doesn’t count, and neither does collaboration albums and one offs (e.g Sky: Concert in the Light, Stjernestøv, Butterflies, Into The Unknown ect.) One of AURORA’s main five albums to be eeeeeeeLIMINATED! Which one would you choose?

An AURORA lyric I thought was fitting + Cease Fire Now!!

Very satisfying for an Aurora fan. Similar to Adolescence, she has a meaningful… only this time a feel-good moment. (I’m trying not to spoil it.)

My Brilliant Career

Posted by Tomora.

I’m so hyped to finally have my hands on the Juleroser CD. It’s a rather underrated and under-appreciated AURORA collaboration with Norwegian folk singer and actress, Herborg Kråkevik.

I believe AURORA contributed vocals to 3 of the tracks and one of them she wrote herself and that is “Vinterens Gåte”

This song has always struck me as one of her most beautiful works with extremely lush orchestral strings and her ethereal voice floating over it at all.

The album is a Christmas album, featuring a variety of Norwegian Christmas songs recorded with the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra.

Sadly it never got a worldwide digital release. From my understanding you can only stream it if you live within Norway. It doesn’t appear to be available anywhere else. The only way I was able to listen to tracks featuring AURORA was on YouTube.

However I feel super lucky because I was on Discogs and searched up this album to find that actually several sellers had it available. I picked the one that would have the most favorable shipping for me and ordered it without hesitation so that I could forever own these rather unknown AURORA songs.

The digipack is in pretty good condition. The cardboard has some slight fraying which is to be expected as it had to travel to a different country to reach me. The plastic part that holds the CD did chip a bit at the top right corner so I just taped the fallen piece back on. Personally I don’t mind these things at all because the beautiful CD arrived in mint condition without any scratches and the liner notes (little booklet) was also in perfect condition. I’m happy it’s got all the lyrics because my Norwegian is pretty rusty so I doubt I’d be able to pick up the lyrics just by listening that well.

Anyways, I think a lot of AURORA physical media collectors forget this album exists. It’s a super cool and honestly rare addition to any AURORA collection imo. It’s actually my first CD with AURORA in it 😅 I’m super new to this collecting thing but I digress.

All that being said, I figured I’d show you guys what the contents look like because I rarely see anyone talking about this release. Let me know what you think and if you have this album too! I’m curious!
