The history of the music industry is inevitably also the story of the development of technology.

As an avid photographer I also took advantage of the latest technology in photography - digital photography - to post photos on my website on a daily basis.

Digital imaging has untied our hands with regards to technical limitations. We no longer have to be arbiters of technology we get to participate in the interpretation of technology into creative content.

But when we started our product portfolio we focused the mixed signal requirements first for image processing devices and then in audio applications targeting our technology into the growing use of digital technology in consumer markets.

From a technical point of view there seemed to me to be absolutely no reason why - with the existing technology - we couldn't do very high quality audio because whereas the boom in digital graphics is ongoing the boom in digital audio has already happened.

Electronic music used pure sounds completely calibrated. You had to think digitally as it were in a way that allowed you to extend serial ideas into other parameters through technology.

Sharing is good and with digital technology sharing is easy.

I don't think that digital photography is romantic yet. It's not sympathetic the way that film is.

I have a lot of plants and fish and a pet lizard and Venus flytraps. I have a whole ecosystem in my room like a running waterfall and different lights and sensors set on digital timers.

I can't drag myself away from 'Final Cut Pro.' It is a digital video editing system. I am obsessed with it but I am always away from home and I can't use it.

The digital camera is a great invention because it allows us to reminisce. Instantly.

It struck me that working digitally with a small crew I could lay out a general plan for Famous and hope for mistakes which would create something more than satire and something less than truthful reality.

My own experience is use the tools that are out there. Use the digital world. But never lose sight of the need to reach out and talk to other people who don't share your view. Listen to them and see if you can find a way to compromise.

When the first computers started to come in we tried to digitalize the seismological equipment.

I think we are at the very beginning of high changes not only in terms of digital film but in the way the movies will be screened whether they'll be screened on phones on computers - on everything.

The digital revolution is far more significant than the invention of writing or even of printing.
