I'm a fan of the mythos of Atlanta hip-hop, and it's something I grew up imagining. It was very interesting to get there and see the real version of this world and then reconcile the differences between what's presented as Atlanta hip-hop to the rest of the world and what the real, breathing version of it is.

I like the idea of reading into people's faces when they're not emoting. Some people are fascinated, some are sympathizing.

I love museums, but I always thought there was something funny about a group of strangers silently staring at works of inanimate objects together. Each person is having a very personal and maybe even emotional experience, but it's in the confines of an extremely quiet and sterile room.

Shooting videos with lots of effects is like shooting a bunch of puzzle pieces.

Too many things are possible in a dream. It's most interesting when you don't know which space you're in.

If artists do have ideas, they're often not great.

That exact moment when you're about to realize that this might be a dream is my favorite thing.
