If you can make art with sound, can't you make music with objects?

I see myself and many artists like me as the torchbearers through these dark ages.

I'm constantly tortured, and that's why I say happiness is irrelevant. Happiness is for children and yuppies.

I have about two or three people, we don't have an office, we don't even have a dedicated phone line. We do it out of our own homes, and we make it work.

One thing that I do ask myself when I'm in the creative process is, 'Does the world need this?'

I mean I have had a very combative relationship with critics because I'm very impatient with people that don't give my work the respect I feel it deserves.

I have a very beautiful life with great friends and I look forward to waking up every day. Every day is a vacation but every day is a workday. I don't want to take vacations because music is my life and if I escape from music, that's the same thing as death. So a vacation is death to me. Sitting on the beach for a week is my idea of hell. That would kill me.
