And you can be together, but be lonely, and you can be alone, but not be lonely at all.

We often joke, Bill and I, that he cannot be lonely.

He cannot deal with being by himself.

He always needs people around him.

And I strive long, must have creative solitude, must find pockets of solitude and loneliness.

in order to find creativity and reconnect with myself.

So loneliness is a recipe for community, in my opinion.

And I think those things complement each other and they're synergetic, absolutely.

The yin and yang of togetherness.

And they allow you, I think, to, yeah, to reset and to tune in, to...

to that ratio we talked about of who you are and who you want to be.

I love to be able not only to lose focus, but kind of to focus on the peripheral view and to allow different things to occur at once.

listen to like Leonard Bernstein, anything I can find online by Lenny Bernstein.

It's reading a nature paper.

It's war and peace.

It's really revisiting all the texts that are so timeless for me with opportunities that are very, very timely.

And I think for me, the creative process is really about bringing timeless

problems or concepts together with timely technologies to observe them.

I remember when we did the Mandela Pavilion, we read Moby Dick, the whiteness of the whale, the albino, the different, the other.
