    "…I would say that every advanced art and art   form has a tendency towards “enlightenment”, since to be understood and   appreciated it needs an “enlightened” or at least open minded audience, with a   willingness to reflect upon one’s own systems of understanding, of how we   perceive and decode the world. I doubt that this makes me a “political” artist   in the sense we normally use to consider that notion. But hopefully I’m a   political artist in the way Theodor Adorno would describe it….I would say that   I am influenced by new technologies, and formats, however ex negativo: These   forms are not just new and “innocent”, but were designed to replace analog film   – and analog film as a medium of fine art cannot be replaced by digital   technologies since the materiality of the two media are completely different and   have nothing to do with one another. I decided to make work that illustrates and   celebrates the qualities of analog film which cannot be replaced by non-analog   media".
