So it sort of dawned on me that you have to build into your work the fact that it's going to be shown in different kinds of places and different kinds of light. And the fact that the surroundings and where you're going to be shown is always changing, so that should really not affect the meaning of the work. It should be part of what the work is about.

I wanted my style to be very recognizable.

I usually, if I give a talk, I don't usually prepare anything. I just say - you know, I may stop talking by showing some video or slides of what I do but mainly I try to respond to what problems people have with my work.

And the mind actually does generate electrical currents - very weak ones and not necessarily ones that can be picked up by anyone else.

The Vogels were quite strict in what they acquired. They never acquired a projection. They never acquired a sound piece. They were never big on photos that much, unless it was photos documenting something. They had some limitations into what they bought.

I had always worked. I always had part-time jobs.

So I never had trouble getting work or working or doing - I always worked. I worked when I went to college. I worked after school.
