I think Pro Tools is pretty analogous to how people composed music on tape back in the 70s, taking little fragments of things and saying, 'How can we organize these in a sensible way'?

I'm not a perfectionist by a long shot, but self-doubt is a large part of my creative process.

The computer does things that can't be done with hardware, like freezing sounds.

I've got a bunch of circuit-bent boxes and things that are controlled by my Mac through a big breakout box. I want to create this total environment where I can bring all this gear to the show but maybe just use one or two elements, if that's what's called for.

I love collecting; my joy is finding private press American or European home studio electronic music from the 60s and 70s.

I think if people have more of an understanding of what I'm doing, then they'll appreciate it and get into it more.
