If you get rid of a lot of the poseurs by destroying record companies, maybe it's a good trade-off.

Right now I just finished writing the music for a Rugrats feature film and the third week of September I go to London, and the Orchestra is going to perform the score.

It's people who write music because they are obsessed that I like; because they have something to say and no other way to say it.

To Kill a Mockingbird' represents Hollywood at its very finest, when a popular film could truly contain a message. It has one of the most moving scores of all time.

My major was Fine Arts and Education thinking I would become an Art Teacher. I couldn't visualize myself as an art teacher, thinking how it wouldn't work.

As far as the style, I was fascinated by surrealism.

The stories I write are often literal to events that have happened or observations that I've made, and sometimes they're fantastical.
