Life Is Beautiful. Really, It Is. Full

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.

Life Is Beautiful. Really, It Is. Full Of Beauty And Illusions. Life Is Great. Without It, You'd Be Dead.

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.

For Me, Making A Movie Is Kind Of Like Vomiting. Not That Film Is Like Vomit, But More Like This Mass Of Ideas And Thoughts That You Have And Just Have To Put Them Out There. It's Not Even About Making Perfect Sense - It's More About Making Perfect Nonsense. I Don't Do Too Much Soul-searching Or Self-analysis. I Just Enjoy Making Things.

If Richard Wagner Lived Today, He Would Probably Work With Film Instead Of Music. He Already Knew Back Then That The 'great Art Form' Would Include A Sort Of Fourth Dimension; It Was Really Film He Was Talking About.
