TheTerminalExpress yes

TheTerminalExpress Age, the interviewer is really into it. she's good.

+jwsyt1 Agreed. That bullshit is part and parcel with art though. If you watch a movie at a theater, trailers were probably released before the film aired. Artists can't exist in their daydreamy worlds following their delusions of grandeur to conclusions without someone selling their work for them. Don't get me wrong: I went to a Stephen Vitiello (sound artist) lecture , and asked him, "what would you do if you wanted the audio from a specific specie of whale, or some-such non...", and without hesitation, speaking over me: "I'd just go out and record it". I took that to mean "the story of the artist has supplanted the value of their work". Still, artists often have some knowledge of their own madness, and its nice to have a few around that aren't simply selling someone else's product.
