Space Village Simultaneous
In some ways it's hard to see electronic music as a genre because the word "electronic" just refers to how it's made. hip-hop is electronic music. most reggae is electronic. pop is electronic. house music, techno, all these sorts of ostensibly disparate genres are sort of being created with the same equipment.

Live and let live, be and let be, hear and let hear, see and let see. . . . live and let live and remember this line: 'your bus'ness is your bus'ness and my bus'ness is mine.'

Television and radio are what i call sequential media; they're not simultaneous media. with simultaneous media, you can scan your eye down an electronic or print page and pick among six or seven stories you might like and want to read. with television and radio, you have to wait until the guy's finished talking about the balloon boy, which i don't have the slightest interest in, to find out that all hell's broken loose in baghdad. because they've chosen that day to start with the balloon boy.

The law exists for lots of reasons. in the case of migration, the law exists to maintain the integrity of america. we allow immigrants here, happily so. we don't deny legal immigrants a path to citizenship in this country. but beyond that, since we can't take in everybody, since everybody can't come here, it's physically not possible - well, it is. you know you could put the population of the world inside the state of texas in 1,500-square-feet homes. i mean, you wouldn't want to, but you could do it.

We are not a warlike people. nor is our history filled with tales of aggressive adventures and imperialism, which might come as a shock to some of the placard painters in our modern demonstrations. the lesson of vietnam, i think, should be that never again will young americans be asked to fight and possibly die for a cause unless that cause is so meaningful that we, as a nation, pledge our full resources to achieve victory as quickly as possible.
