I studied ethnomusicology for a while, but I don't think that really influenced my music.

I grew up in a small village close to a big lake. There are heavy winds there, and they always sound different. I like these sounds best.

For me, noise is not something I use to shock, or because it's funny, or weird, or whatever. I use it because I find it beautiful.

For me, there is a strong hypnotic power in noise-music, and that's something I don't want to leave out of my music anymore.

No more "band psycho" stuff for me. I'm fine without it.

I hate the idea of repeating myself. I need new perspectives and challenges for each project, and I'm very happy that many people are able to follow me without any problem.

I really don't want to become a "member" of a band anymore. I really enjoy having total control over my music and productions.

In my case, I am improvising with existing sound files. I use an MSP patch that a friend of mine made, and you have to improvise when you use this patch. I don't use a guitar in performance anymore.

It feels like I’m stuck in one spot. It’s been this way for a long time. I know you understand, but now you’re moving on without me. And I—I’m not ready to be alone.

I am falling in love with heavenly Father.

Hatred is a death wish for the hated not a life wish for anything else.

Man's material discoveries have outpaced his moral progress.

I'm not an inventor. I just want to make things better.

I wouldn't trade those 10 years for anything. The Navy taught me a lot of things. It molded me as a man, and I made a lot of wonderful friends.

The surviving intelligent life form on Earth is not going to be carbon-based; it's going to be silicon-based.

I'd like to think that the best bunker buster is a diplomat.

The amount of information that can be stored by the ultimate laptop, 10 to the 31st bits, is much higher than the 10 to the 10th bits stored on current laptops.

Don't gamble; take all your savings and buy some good stock and hold it till it goes up, then sell it. If it don't go up, don't buy it.
