I haven't sufficient interest in objects or anything I can see around me to do what Oldenburg does.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I like to make things, but I looked at old craft books on weaving or mosaics or whatever, I'm like, 'I don't really know anything about that stuff.'
I can't think of anyone who has done anything remotely useful after the age of 80.
Over the years, a number of other intriguing experimental ideas and areas of investigation have been the objects of my attention, and I have devoted some time and effort to exploring the inherent possbilities.
When I look at some of my old work, the pieces I find most interesting are the ones with people in them.
I had no new ideas on the physics we might learn, and I could not compete with the younger generation.
But I've got ideas. I keep my little notebook, I've always got that with me. Hopefully there's more stuff than nonsense in there.
I'm working to bring celestial objects like the sun and moon into the spaces that we inhabit.
I've been doing old-people things since I was a child.
I continue to be interested in new things that seem old and old things that seem new.
I'm sort of an experimenter; I thought it'd be interesting to play around and see what's there.
