I put projects together. I put people together.

When you take something apart, you get a great sense of what it took to originally put it together.

Give me something to assemble, I won't look at the directions, I'll try to figure it out by myself. It's why I love Ikea furniture.

I decided to be an inventor when I was five. My parents had given me a few various enrichment toys like erector sets, and for some reason I had the idea that if I put things together just the right way, I could create the intended effect.

The best way to figure out how something works is to try to build it from scratch.

I've always enjoyed seeing how things are made.

I'm trying to assemble materials for a different mode of life.

I'm very interested in structure, how multiple stories are assembled in different ways; that is what memory does as well.

To get things done, you have to get people together.

I was always interested in figuring things out. I'd do experiments, like combining things I found around the house to see what would happen if I put them together.
