The Cabinet of Dr Caligari - 100th Anniversary
I'm urging you to experience this daring film. Not just clips or famous images. You have to see it and feel it.
The Cabinet of Dr Caligari - Das Kabinett des Doktor Caligari

My future plans
I'm going to fry PewDiePie's testicles in oil, and call them Scandi Mountain oysters.
Teach American geography on a watermelon.
Solve the slippery mystery of glass dildos.
Attend fisherman's friend's funeral.
Visit Spunky Puddle, Ohio. Now apparently a ghost town. How is that possible?
Get Conan O'Brien hairdo and wear diapers.

What does raising the bar mean to you?
Risk-taking, in the true sense, means that you don't know. You don't know exactly what's going to happen.
What does this mean when you're creating? You're trying things that are unconventional. You're developing something that was missing. You don't already know that there's an audience.
Creativity and self-censorship don't go well together.
I was the kid who wanted to take risks. I wanted to look at the world with fresh eyes without being infantile.
I was the kid who was sensitive to atmosphere. The atmosphere surrounding everyone and everything. We shouldn't forget the atmosphere we are creating down here.
No one taught me this. And you can't take it for granted. The second you take these things for granted they cease to exist.

Art questions October 2020
Q: How would you describe your music?
A: I want to make memorable art music. Haunting, dreamlike, powerful, touching.
Usually I do it with simple harmonies. Sometimes they are dissonant. Dissonance is not just one thing. You can play chords and harmonies with dissonance that is not obvious. You need other musical skills too. Otherwise it will turn into a cheap trick.
Q: What active bands are you listening to these days?
A: Triptykon, Drudkh.
Veterans from Norway: Thorns, Virus, Ulver, Arcturus, Manii and Helheim. Helheim's Rignir was one of the best recent albums. I've been waiting for the second Thorns album for years.
9 trillion bands is a massive problem and a lot of it's crap.
Dear new bands, make new music.
