I dream of a Digital India where technology ensures the Citizen-Government interface is incorruptible.
I write more for the children of the computer revolution, who are also interested in speculation and exploring the human condition, but approach it from an information perspective.
It wasn't like I was specifically wanting to write songs about technology. It's just what I lived, what I was experiencing growing up.
We live increasingly in a system in which little direct attention is paid to the object, the function, the program, the task, the need; but immense attention to the role, the procedure, prestige, and profit.
I wanted to make the world of 'The Last Book in the Universe' as real as possible, so I spent a lot of time thinking about it. I decided the world would be a very different place, but people would be pretty much the same.
A lot of movies were influenced by 'Logan's Run,' like 'Minority Report'. A lot of films have those elements in them.
I hate the modern day the kids live in. I don't think it's very cool. Everyone's interconnected.
As cities grow and technology takes over the world, belief and imagination fade away, and so do we.
