My background is in hardware design. I found hardware work to be a welcome change from thousands of hours of programming and that led to the designs you mentioned.

My biggest role as director on the film is keeping a sense of the overview – how to cast the movie and shoot it in such a way that it will cut together. And how to design the style and tone.

Acting isn’t for me. I don’t like being told what to do. I’m more interested in set design, more visually driven.

Design is directed toward human beings. To design is to solve human problems by identifying them and executing the best solution.

The reward is that you can actually create a world separate from reality with a story, actors, music, and camera design. When it works it can entertain, move people and teach us all.

Language, philosophy, and science are interwoven into the design of words, which are manipulated to create surprising illusions.
