The New Testament evinces its universal design in its very style which alone distinguishes it from all the literary productions of earlier and later times.

Usually I design the lighting and when I have the physical set there I'm not good at going out loosely and saying 'Do you what you want give it to the editor and he'll figure it out.' I physically then walk on with the actors and I say 'Let's walk until you guys feel the space works for you and tell me when all that happens.'

If we don't have accurate information if we are not able to tell difficult truth one to another we will never be able to effectively design a policy for Iraq.

You all know that each title in the Chronicles has a chess theme that's partly because of the overall design of the Chronicles themselves - the game of chess as an analogue of the game of life.

I have made bouquets of pleats bouquets of flowers bouquets of ruffles bouquets of feathers. Often I design in mousseline held tightly around the waist and with something else going on all around.

If you decide to design your own language there are thousands of sort of amateur language designer pitfalls.

I wear a lot of different hats - from writer to producer and artist. We all do 5 or 6 jobs everything from creating our own graphic design to actually recording and the whole bit.

My background is in hardware design. I found hardware work to be a welcome change from thousands of hours of programming and that led to the designs you mentioned.

Looking back video game design seems a natural fit although there was no such thing when I was growing up. I built a Tic-Tac-Toe playing machine in my teens which went up in smoke on the night it was scheduled to go to a science fair.

Acting isn't for me. I don't like being told what to do. I'm more interested in set design more visually driven.
