Interview with Anand prior to his match with Carlsen, 2013
World Champion Viswanathan Anand interviewed after 8th "Tal Memorial" in Moscow. Most of the questions regard his upcoming (November 2013) match with title challenger Magnus Carlsen.
Vishy Anand 2012 Accenture Presentation
Viswanathan Anand, World Chess Champion, shares in this paper, among
other things, the influence of technology in the current chess as well
as decision-making models in the game.
I found this great video, a 45 min video conference of Vishy Anand
dated from August 2012, 12 days later after his match with Gelfand , on
occasion of an Accenture presentation (so basically not too technical
within chess in its content) and you may have seen it already, but I
hadn’t so I assume some of you may have missed as well .
It is truly awesome. He talks about patterns (such as chess patterns everyone must know), familiar and unfamiliar positions, anecdotes with his wife, anecdotes in simuls, chess thinking process, and the likes of how do you differentiate yourself when everyone else has the same software and hardware. Also, how important is for him to actually play out his computer analysis in a real wooden board before going to the games, what kind of positions from all of the analysis done he foresees that he could successfully play them should they appear without remembering any of the analysis, and what kind of positions need to be specifically memorized, how can you use your emotions, even the intuitively prejudicial like anger in your favour, etc.
Have fun!
