I think in many respects we do follow in the surrealist tradition – but which one – because they never really had agreement. I feel generally we explore the unconcious – we push limits in some respects – we want to reveal the human psyche to learn – to amuse – to frighten. We want to provoke a sensory delirium in people…but complete attack won’t occur until we play live… I personally am always searching for my limits – I always want to push things to the edge, I like extremes – I despise deliberate mediocrity, to always take the soft options. I need to be continually provoked – amazed – amused — and I,perhaps wrongly, assume that other people want the same – even if they don’t acknowledge it at at first. Ignorance is such a security to people,but it is a falsehood and a lie!!!

Voting is not an act of political freedom. It is an act of political conformity. Those who refuse to vote are not expressing silence. They are screaming in the politician’s ear: ‘You do not represent me. This is not a process in which my voice matters. I do not believe you.’
