collect experience human library life memory physical storage suck unit visual
There must be a little memory bank, a library or storage unit in my brain, that just tucks away memories of other people. I suck in as much of life as I can. I don't do it deliberately - I'm just curious. Dangerously so. I collect visual and aural patterns, physical human patterns, from experience.

Actors are there to represent the human condition back to itself. It's never about the actor. It's about the content. That's what I strive for in my work.
