People love their favorite records. And I aspire to make a record someone might be able to love in that way.

Over time, I started becoming more and more aware of the vastness and complexity of the universe, which led me away from any sort of conventional Christianity.

Every single day the world seems like it is on the brink of falling apart. But then I look outside my window, and things look about the same as they did a week ago. It's almost a form of cognitive dissonance.

If we base our belief systems on the humble assumption that the complexities of the world are ontologically beyond our understanding, then maybe our belief systems will make more sense and end up causing less suffering.

I was never encouraged to believe anything. I was brought up in a profoundly agnostic or pantheistic community.

We hope that as a species we're capable of dealing with environmental catastrophe before it actually does collectively kill most of us.
