The normal cut in a theatrical film is anywhere from 3 to 6 seconds. That means thousands of images in a film over a couple of hours. In Visitors the cuts come every 70-plus seconds. The point of view is that the stiller one can be the more open to their senses they become. The whole world is quick right now. If things can be slowed down they stay in memory longer.

All tools have intrinsic politics and technology is the tool of now.

So, not for lack of love of language, but because I feel our language is in an enormous state of humiliation, I decided to make films without words.

I think it's naive to pray for world peace if we're not going to change the form in which we live.

Technology is not neutral.

What I'm trying to do is to at least raise a flag to the blinding light of technology.

I think there's an enormous value to being negative. The world we live in today, negativity is not permitted.
