If I had a stock of fabulous sounds I would just always use them. I wouldn't bother to find new ones.

The trouble begins with a design philosophy that equates 'more options' with 'greater freedom.'

The whole point of art, as far as I’m concerned, is that art doesn’t make any difference. And that’s why it’s important. Take film: you can have quite extreme emotional experiences watching a movie, but they stop as soon as you walk out of the cinema. You can see people being hurt, but even though you feel those things strongly, you know they’re not real.

In the 1960s, people were trying to get away from the pop song format. Tracks were getting longer, or much, much shorter.

If you watch any good player, they're using different parts of their body and working with instruments that respond to those movements. They're moving in many dimensions at once.

Art is not an object, but a trigger for experience.

The smart thing in the art world is to have one good idea and never have another.
