My particular aesthetic of light and color and design wouldn't change as a result of working with computer graphics rather than with slit scan or miniatures.

When I worked on 2001 - which was my first feature film - I was deeply and permanently affected by the notion that a movie could be like a first-person experience.

We're not that far from being able to plant images, memories, and emotional states directly into the brain.

The technology of the time dictated the way things looked.

Clearly, if wed had the kind of computer graphics capability then that we have now, the Star Gate sequence would be much more complex than flat planes of light and color.

There's a consistency in my work that pops up independent of the limitations of the technology.
