2 Amazing

  • 2. My dad was a journalist. He was in Rwanda right after the genocide. In Berlin when the wall came down. He was always disappearing and coming back with amazing stories. So telling stories for a living made sense to me.
  • 3. Music makes your soul feel amazing while you're performing it.

3 Anger

  • 1. I have not lost faith in God. I have moments of anger and protest. Sometimes I've been closer to him for that reason.

4 Anniversary

  • 2.

Until New Orleans is all the way back all the way.
  • 3. Perhaps a hundred people assembled one evening May 15 1876 at the time when the country was celebrating the hundredth anniversary of its political independence.

5 Architecture

  • 1. It's my goal to make a building as immaterial as possible. Architecture is a very material thing. It takes a lot of resources so why not eliminate what you don't need as long as you're able to achieve the same result?
  • 2. Does an architecture to assuage the spirit have a place?
  • 3. In my early 20s I was so miserable doing construction I wanted something that paid money. I liked nice stuff. I liked cars and architecture and things that cost money. I wanted to not swing a hammer and make money… and not do stuff that was dirty. I attempted to get into comedy. I started to do stand-up but I wasn't very good at it.
