You have to act and this is something that happened in abstract expressionism too, it was a discovery particularly in De Kooning's paintings, great paintings. There's a lot of speed in his work and the speed produces things that only speed can produce.

The things that can go wrong are particular to mediums and they make for qualities that really are of the medium.

Speed is a way to escape consciousness and just act.
