The thing is that I have a really intense, almost compulsive need to record. But it doesn't end there, because what I record is somehow transformed into a creative thing. There is a continuity. Recording is the beginning of a conceptual production. I am somehow collapsing the two - recording and producing - into a single event. ↗

Art then becomes a safety valve for the expression of individual and collective neuroses originating in the inability of coping with the environment. Its products serve as a retarded correction of perception braked by the system of conventions and stereotypes that stabilize society. They create a slightly updated system which, eventually assimilated by history, will require a new system and so on without end. Art objects serve as points of identification alienated from the consumer, requiring more sympathy than empathy. ↗

I blame music television and internet. People too lazy and stupid to appreciate conceptual artist like Bigfoot who appeal is absence. ↗

Our images of God matter. Just as how we conceptualize God affects what we think the Christian life is about, so do our images of God. ↗

David is purely a conceptual artist. He didn't play any instruments or paint or anything. We were painters. ↗
