I looked on YouTube for sleep deprivation and there were videos of people experimenting with staying awake for a while. You saw all the different stages.

I was a big fan of 'Awake' and also 'Lone Star.'

For me, insomnia was something ordinary, and it came and went for ordinary reasons.

The tracks on 'Sleep' were recorded live to 2-track. I did a fadeout or two of them, but that's really it.

Twitter wasn't a big thing even on 'Inception;' it certainly wasn't on 'The Dark Knight.'

I've been fascinated by the Internet from the very start. In 2001, I had made a funny black-and-white film called 'How to Dance Properly,' a short video of me dancing to a Madonna song. I sent it to 17 of my friends on a Thursday, and by Monday, one million people a day were logging on to view it.

I never liked sleeping; I always think I am missing something.

'Midnight Nation' is really interesting.

I was really excited by the idea that people were sharing information now and discovering information in a totally new way on the Internet via Twitter and Facebook, yet that experience was pretty clunk and just lots of bit.ly links.
