Almost everything is like a machine.

A human being is not a machine. Especially when it comes to creating.

If we are machines, then in principle at least, we should be able to build machines out of other stuff, which are just as alive as we are.

Nothing is less instructive than a machine.

You can only generate ideas when you put pencil to paper, brush to canvas... when you actually do something physical.

Perhaps one day we will have machines that can cope with approximate task descriptions, but in the meantime, we have to be very prissy about how we tell computers to do things.

We can have all of the best ideas in the world, but if we do not have a system to get our tasks completed, we will fail.

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.

As a child I was very into gadgets and machines and robots. The idea of experimenting with machines to create art was always something I tinkered with.

To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk.
