Sometimes you talk to people who really don't know anything about your work, and what can you say?
It is understandable that people cannot be knowledgeable about all the different mediums. Sometimes it is funny.
I do consider the individual things individual, in a way because that is what I do I guess, try to find out what is special about each medium.
You have to act and this is something that happened in abstract expressionism too, it was a discovery particularly in De Kooning's paintings, great paintings. There's a lot of speed in his work and the speed produces things that only speed can produce.
Speed is a way to escape consciousness and just act.
If you think too much in the music you are too late.
The idea that recording itself is an instrument.
We've been able to record the music of cultures that did not have recording, and thus preserve it. But there is also a negative aspect to this and that is the effect of the intrusion of the West on such cultures.
There is really not that much improvisation in my films. There is an acceptance of a chance.

I really want to make physical things so that the experience is a real experience and not just conceptual.
I know there is also the influence of television and being able to zap away so it is a weightier decision to go into the theater than it used to be. And probably attention spans are not as strong as they used to be, generally speaking.
People's vocabulary has expanded.
I don't know what is happening to people but they are not as tough as they used to be.
I try to make each film a different film.
Some of my films have caused riots, fights, and all kinds of things.
I don't watch a lot of reality TV.
I do a lot of challenges I run marathons and stuff like that and I like to challenge myself.
I am a little bit of a foul mouth and I just like to give it back to people.
Socially in my alliances I wanted to just have a strong alliance and making decisions but not putting it out there but letting other people be the target in that way. I think it worked until I should not have been playing that way anymore.
When my name started popping up I was quite irritated and a little bit in shock.
