AUDIENCE, IDEAS Posted: May 16, 2019 2:24 pm

“To those who lived before headphones, it might seem as though I want to exist in the world without actually being part of it. And to some extent, that’s true.

Granted, I share it with Brian Eno and Twin Shadow, but at least the choice is mine.” – The Atlantic
