I see that idea that we need a new form as something critical. I mean, we do need to invent and not be benchmarking all the time. That's important to me.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My forms are not abstractions of things in the real world. They're also not symbols. I would say that my job is to invent these forms and to put them together in a way that keeps your interest, to give the forms a quirky identity so you can engage with them, so you realize there's an inner intelligence or logic.
Especially in technology, we need revolutionary change, not incremental change.
To find a form that accommodates the mess, that is the task of the artist now.
I have been motivated by this idea since I was a kid that if we invented machines that were created in the way that people are - were aware, have free will, inventive machines, machines that would be geniuses - potentially, they could reinvent themselves. They're not just applying it to other things - they could actually redesign themselves.
We are drowning in information, while starving for wisdom. The world henceforth will be run by synthesizers, people able to put together the right information at the right time, think critically about it, and make important choices wisely.
There are art forms we don't know about yet that will be enabled by technology we haven't invented yet.
Create form out of the nature of the task with the means of our time. This is our work.
What is necessary is possible, what we want is expensive. What is unnecessary is unlikely.
You don't have to pay more to have a great form.
We refuse to recognize problems of form, but only problems of building. Form is not the aim of our work, but only the result. Form, by itself, does not exist. Form as an aim is formalism; and that we reject.
