A Scientist Shouldn't Be Asked To Judge

Spaceman 3 Was One Of My Favorite Bands Growing Up, And Jason Spaceman Is Someone I Got Along Well With. I Always Felt His Music Was Like Narcotic Gospel - There's Something Very Moody And Ethereal About It. Sun City Girls Is The Same, But Different. To Me, They're Like The Premier American Avant Music Act. They're Like The Marx Brothers Of Music. I Don't Mean They're Funny Like That, But They Turn Everything On Its Head.

The First Time I Hung Out With [david Blaine], He Took Me To This Condemned Building, And It Had A Pizza Oven And He Crawled Into The Pizza Oven And Turned The Heat On To 400 Degrees Or Something Like That, And He Stayed In It For I Guess A Half Hour. He Came Out, And Except For One Or Two Second-degree Burns, He Was Unscathed. You Meet A Lot Of Musicians And Filmmakers And Actors, But It's Rare To Meet Someone Who Can Step Inside A Pizza Oven And Take The Heat. I Was Intrigued By That.

I've Always Been Pulled Toward People Who Can't Seem To Make Anything Fit. It's Like A Cinema Of Isolation, Of Loneliness. They Go Outside The System And Create Their Own Society To Develop Their Obsession To An Insane Degree.

Gucci Mane Is Trap Rap's Frank Sinatra.

Even Gene Kelly: I Always Preferred Him To Fred Astaire, Just Because He Was More Athletic, Like Skateboarding. His Leaps Were Big. There Was Something Really Great About His Moves.
