I've always loved 3D. In fact as a kid I was exposed to 3D at an early age because my grandfather was a specialist of 3D in cinematheques. And then my cousin put it in 'Science of Sleep' with toilet paper tube cities. But he was a specialist and I always wanted to do something in 3D.
The state of New Jersey is really two places - terrible cities and wonderful suburbs. I live in the suburbs the final battleground of the American dream where people get married and have kids and try to scratch out a happy life for themselves. It's very romantic in that way but a bit naive. I like to play with that in my work.
There are certain romances that belong in certain cities in a certain atmosphere in a certain time.

London in the '70s was a pretty catastrophic dump I can tell you. We had every kind of industrial trouble we had severe energy problems we were under constant terrorist attack from Irish terrorist groups who started a bombing campaign in English cities politics were fantastically polarized between left and right.
I have never felt salvation in nature. I love cities above all.
An architect should live as little in cities as a painter. Send him to our hills and let him study there what nature understands by a buttress and what by a dome.
People in cities may forget the soil for as long as a hundred years but Mother Nature's memory is long and she will not let them forget indefinitely.
Money is the worst currency that ever grew among mankind. This sacks cities this drives men from their homes this teaches and corrupts the worthiest minds to turn base deeds.
