art technology rocks
They say rock is dead. Andy [Warhol] said art is dead. God is dead according to Nietzsche. If everything's dead what's alive? Only technology. We're in the era of technology.
dream crafts kind
Songwriting is kind of like a craft. It's not something that just comes in a dream. You've got to work at it
father connections cia
My father was assassinated by an FBI-CIA connection
love betrayal stories
There are only really a few stories to tell in the end, and betrayal and the failure of love is one of those good stories to tell.
art fun dressing-up
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.
hate thinking people
I do think British tailoring is the best. French people hate me when I say that, but I do think it's true.
people ugly dresses
I don't like when people dress intentionally ugly. Personally that's not my thing.
art thinking views
I think when people try to use their art for political views, I think they're art becomes smaller, less interesting. And so for me, as an artist, I'm trying to speak about things in a universal way and not be pedantic or small-minded and try to convince other people of my political views. But having said that, every day I live in sort of complete terror because of what I read in the newspaper and what is going on in the world. I'm constantly, as I think many of us are, overwhelmed by the sort of, mass psychosis that's occurring.
thinking trying use
I'm trying to use the language of today to express a general existential crisis that I think the world and I are going through.
art important taste
The most important thing in art is taste.
hurt levels serious
The one thing I do find about serious reviews is that usually they tend to have a point, and that's what I find hurt so much about discerning critics. If the reviews hurt they're probably right on some level.
came next
There's no single movement out there. It's not like in the '60s, when Revolver came out and that's just it for the next year.
thinking stuff awful
I actually think in music, learning technical stuff doesn't matter. You can be as technical as you like, but still sound awful.
hurt levels reviews
If the reviews hurt they're probably right on some level.
