“My artwork is in order to seduce people into thinking.” — Genesis P-Orridge Quote

“My artwork is in order to seduce people into thinking.”

“With Thobbing Gristle, that era from '75 to '81 was a period when the politics of the time demanded anger and rage.”

“We all fall into biological and mental habits. It's an easy way for us to navigate day-to-day work and life, but it also doesn't do us any favours in terms of growing into wisdom, growing into a greater understanding of each other, growing into a deeper relationship - all the things that we really crave.”

“When I started out, I wrote the songs, recorded the songs, mastered, mixed, did the artwork, made the packaging and did the distribution, all myself. Now I understand what everyone's jobs are, who is doing them right, and who isn't.”

“I'm fearless when it comes to engineering and motors and gears and pulleys and glass and artwork.”

“Really, my biggest risk was just the initial step to quit my day job to do music. I was packaging and shipping for an art gallery in Manhattan; I went to school for painting, so I always wanted to work around artwork, even though I wasn't really contributing anything to the scene.”
