As a composer and as a musician I'm a true believer - and this is not to be overly diplomatic - I'm a believer that there's artistry in everything from a lawn gnome to a desk chair to a symphony to an Andy Warhol painting. There's art in absolutely everything.

What can you expect from me in the next five years? Well... I'll get older

Its always important to recognize your situation and not take it for granted.

I'm this goofball. I look at myself in the mirror, and the person that I know doesn't match up to what I think people love to perceive me as.

I'm ambitious in the sense that I raise the bar high for myself.

No one's tried to stab me. That's cool. I enjoy not being stabbed.

Im like any other composer. If you give me five years to write a symphony, Im still going to be asking for more time two days before its due.
