1.] Where do ideas come from?
Dreams, travels, art, conversations.

2.] What is the itch you are scratching?
Creating dream incubators and deprivation chambers in the high desert.

3.] Early bird or night owl, tortoise or hare?
Early Bird/Tortoise; Mornings are quiet with less distractions and energies can be focused.

4.] How do you know when you are done?
In the space of building, there isn't a thing as being done. The process sometimes becomes more important than the final product. There is always improvement possible, technologically and aesthetically.
