Being on the same level as everybody is really important to me. I'm trying to do really basic stuff like communicate, convey, talk, see, and invite joining and intimacy. What I'm trying to do is attach. It's not about being separate.

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

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

I've thought about bands or performers who appear from nowhere: You come out of the greenroom in this secure little unit, then you do this thing and you're shielded from everybody. I'm thinking of brilliant people, like Mariah Carey, who have no interaction. They interact with the audience at the time of the live thing but there's no build up and there's no afterward.
