A lot of times, in music especially, it's producers making a political decision.

The biggest fear that I have is settling into too many set behavior patterns, where I feel like I'm no longer exploring possibilities anymore.

The idea of experimenting with machines to create art was always something I tinkered with.

When in doubt, zoom out.

Technology is a wonderful tool, but also if used incorrectly a horrible tool. We're fascinated by all aspects of it, whatever makes our human lives easier on the planet, but eventually there will have to be some sort of merger. The fascination isn't going to die down.

I like that feeling of discombobulation that comes in creating an absurd world that doesn't make sense.

In the past, I was definitely more apt to storing pain away and not worrying about it. But as I get older, it's really about figuring out how to process it, how to feel it, and then also how to use it in my art.
