I've done a lot of bad things in the past, and that troubles me. It is often before I could say I was a self.

The idea of the self interests me a great deal. What is the self? And finding yourself, and which self? In a way, we're more than one self, but you somehow try to get to a rock bottom self.

The idea is to have no idea. Get lost. Get lost in the landscape.
