Being around some of the bright lights of the technology world and having them expect great things helps you sit down and do it seriously.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Technology is notorious for engrossing people so much that they don't always focus on balance and enjoy life at the same time.
I think that's one of the greatest gifts you get if you're successful at something like music or film or photography - any of the arts - you can sit there and think. It's so much fun to sit there and think and wonder about the world and the universe.
I've had the benefit of doing pretty much everything. So I'm really pretty comfortable in any situation.
Technology makes things faster and more cost-effective, but it's not perfect. It requires you to be as flexible as you can be.
Taking time to sit back and watch and think about what you've seen is important. Traveling did a great deal to me. I found that when I travel and just sit in the corner and watch, a million ideas come to me.
I've always been a sucker for any technology engineered primarily for the entertainment of the human race - even such technology as has been disguised as 'useful' or 'improving' when we all know the real virtue lies in its ability to distract and divert.
I love sitting through long things. I mean, 'Gone With the Wind' I will sit through; I love sitting somewhere for four hours, for anything. I love being on a train. I love sitting down for four hours. I think it's the most wonderful thing to be able to sit somewhere and concentrate on something for more than two hours.
I love technology and I can handle myself around a computer.
We use our gadgets for distraction and entertainment. We use them to avoid work while giving the impression that we're actually working hard.
You can do great things with low-tech stuff.
