Filecoin is a decentralized storage market - think of it like Airbnb for cloud storage - where anybody with extra hard drive space can sell it on the network.
Filecoin is a token with fundamental value. Filecoin is like Bitcoin, but miners amass hard drives instead of hashing computers.
If you have to deal with our friends at ICE, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, it's like a Kafka novel. Files just disappear.
Filibusters have proliferated because under current rules just one or two determined senators can stop the Senate from functioning. Today, the mere threat of a filibuster is enough to stop a vote; senators are rarely asked to pull all-nighters like Jimmy Stewart in 'Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.'
Some guys record an album with songs that are filler. I recorded this album like it was my last.
I did have a go with Botox, but I couldn't move my eyebrows. I also, at one point, had that filler stuff injected, but I looked like a hamster with wodges of food in its cheeks, so I stopped that.
I had no album title, and the album is like a journey in that it's a complete body of work. It's not just a couple of catchy songs and filler, so I felt that I needed to capture the essence of the album.
Love is like an hourglass, with the heart filling up as the brain empties.
When I see a film I've finished, it's like another person made it. Like another mind.
I think a lot of theater actors that were great, like Walken or Glenn Close, later became film actors.
Film and TV and stuff like that was something that I wanted to do when I was really, really little; like, I remember I used to do these plays with my cousins. We used to do Michael Jackson performances, and I would be Michael.
I don't think people realize what it's like for people of color to audition for film and TV.
Working with film directors helps me grow, but nothing like the incremental jumps I make onstage.
The whole being-in-a-room interview thing, at a junket or a film festival, is very inhuman. You meet the person, have five or 10 minutes to talk, and it's not like a conversation.
The Rotterdam Film Festival really makes you feel like part of a film family.
I like the Edinburgh Film Festival, and I've liked what I've experienced of Glasgow's Film Festival too.
To be able to work with people who I have respected and admired, to be a part of something like the Cannes Film Festival, is surreal and brilliant.
No wonder the film industry started in the desert in California where, like all desert dwellers, they dream their buildings, rather than design them.
Many of my friends are not in the film industry, and I feel like it's healthy. It's not totally by choice. It is, perhaps, people I connect with.
I like to write film music that stands on its own.
