I usually am very specific about how I engage information, how I engage people, what context I'm engaging and, above all, the research that goes into each of those.

With multimedia, everything blurs. Software takes the concept of the imagination and makes it something you can edit, tweak, and transform with digital techniques. Everything becomes an edited file.

The easiest thing I can say is simple, but paradoxical in this era of total sampling: Be original.

I like the idea of it as a trickster motif. You know like you're kind of just messing around with people's memories of songs.

If you don't understand the past, the future won't make much sense either.

My work is all about creating new paths for thinking about the possibilities inherent in all art; another world is possible!

It is always harder to climb the mountain. One must find strength of hope within the depths of heart to move onward.

The dark side is emotion, Bane. Anger, hate, love, lust. These are what make us strong, Peace is a lie. There is only passion. Your passion is still there, Bane. Seek it out. Reclaim it.

Words and thoughts are a tremendous vibratory force, ever moulding man's body and affairs.

I carry my flute around everywhere I go and pull it out. It actually becomes a panacea for me, for things that go on around me. It really gives me relief and calmness, tranquility.

The research included neutron resonance spectroscopy, the angular distribution of pion elastic and inelastic scattering on nuclei with optical model fitting.

Writing is nothing more than a guided dream.

We are what the past has made us. We are what the future will make us. Live now. Right now.
