The most important thing in art is taste.

I wouldn't say the purpose of making art is to enjoy it necessarily. For me, it happens to be the thing I enjoy the most. I don't even know what the purpose of art is really, I just know that is something that makes me feel satisfied in a way that other things don't. That's all I know, that's why I like to write songs and films or draw. I just like to make things and somehow I find it gives me a feeling of satisfaction that I can't find in other areas of my life.

Making films is great. You've got 100 people around and you're all dressing up and making weird art - it's a fun group activity.

Anyone who doesn't think the government killed my father either hasn't given the issue much thought, or is insane.

The idea of using media for expressing yourself artistically is kind of something I learned from my mother and my father. So for me, I think growing up wanting to be an artist, I always imagined myself sort of crossing over or mixing media and so it was a natural evolution for me to try to express in a filmic way or in a visual way. It just kind of seems like a natural sort of progression for me in terms of what I'm trying to do as an artist.

It's a bit embarrassing watching myself, but I couldn't get someone else to play me, that would've been stupid.

I actually think in music, learning technical stuff doesn't matter. You can be as technical as you like, but still sound awful.
