In effect, I feel like a blind, deaf, and illiterate person working through the sensibilities and multiple, real talents of other people. Everything I do is collaborative.

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.

Technology has become as ubiquitous as the air we breathe, so we are no longer conscious of its presence.

It is very easy to make clear what you want a film to say, but I did not wish to engage in overt propaganda, even for the right cause. I wanted to create an experience through the films, something where people could have the freedom of their own response to them.

But in fact if you look at film as a metaphor, only through the negative can you have the positive print. What I'm trying to get to is the positive value of negation.

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

Having been an educator for so many years I know that all a good teacher can do is set a context, raise questions or enter into a kind of a dialogic relationship with their students.
