Believe it or not, I'm a bit clumsy with technology. It's probably why I'm so excited about the touchscreen - even an idiot can use it!
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I feel like touchscreen technology blows my mind still. It just makes me think of all of the sci-fi films I enjoyed as a kid.
As touch-screens have become more popular, they have retrained how we interact with images we see on many surfaces.
I think there is an awful lot of technology for technology's sake. I have yet to be convinced by my husband that persuading our mobiles to talk to our computers is going to be quicker and more straightforward than scribbling a note in our kitchen diary.
You talk about Steve Jobs when he came out with the iPhone, and everyone thought it was amazing: you touch it and move the screen.
Even when I work with computers, with high technology, I always try to put in the touch of the hand.
Touch is one of the most intuitive things in the world.
In 2008, I was more just thinking about using the touchscreen for writing the songs. From there I started thinking about how I visualised music.
We're so connected, kind of ever-presently, with technology now. People are carrying their phones with them and looking at the screen so much.
It's been amazing to step out of a bottle of ink on to an iPad. There's no better time than right now to embrace this fabulous sandpit of technology. Because intuitively, at the touch of a finger, most of it is possible.
I spend so much time on the screen when I am writing, the last thing you want to do is spend more time on the Internet looking at a screen. That's what I hate about all this technology.
