I started using Notes [on my iPhone] but I do a lot of hand written notes. It's a very slow, accumulative thing.

I probably protect myself by not asking myself too much.

I don't analyze too much, because then I'll question, 'Why do I write down all of these random little phrases?'

Sometimes I start with music on and then I get distracted because I'm working to a different rhythm; I'm not working to myself. So, I don't have music on when I'm working.

I like actual songs and bands, but it's usually parts, like the production, the bassline, the drums, that I'm really attracted to.

I'm interested in really particular details, ideas, thoughts, and emotions, yet it's defused with performance, where you can play with hiding things, or be more confrontational about something shielded. There is this process of layering in performance.

When I go into the editing process, I re-look at the original intuitive thoughts and then it becomes the written performance or text work. Because they look quite big there's this assumption that there isn't much editing, but that's a huge part of it.
