I'm very interested in the visual world because I'm also very interested in feminism. I find that the world of watching takes us into the most psychotic state of, like, "You are this one person, but you have to become another person to see these images."

I got really interested in the language used in blogs written by young girls - a young person's aggression, which is always lacking from the visual world.

I've studied film a lot, so I know much more about film than music, but I don't think I could have made films.

I've always been a fan of reading art catalogues from exhibitions, and plays, and I've worked with a surrealist German playwright, Heiner Müller.

I'm inspired by that rawness in very direct communication. My work is not meant to keep people happy or give them an escape.

I took interest in Paris Hilton at one point and got fascinated with her voice.

When I write stuff that's provocative, I want people to think about that, too. I'm in between a pop musician and an artist in that way. I want people to be part of the music as they listen, but I also want them to think: What was that?
