Genesis P-Orridge Strategies


I've been watching a lot of Genesis P-Orridge, who seems to have said great things in every second sentence. I wrote some down:

"Clever jokes and cynical art references just aren't enough. That's not going to look very impressive in a 100 - 200 years time, assuming anyone wants to look."

"We already locked on to a process we would continue to this day, to investigate, which is: it’s not what skills you have, it’s how you think about life and what your attitude is to each other that makes something special."

"Creativity should be part of everything. Everything could be more fun, it could be more thoughtful at the same time. It doesn't always have to be serious and intellectual and academic. Some of the most exciting ways to learn are funny as well. Human beings are basically ridiculous creatures in many ways. Just like sex is pretty ridiculous if you stand back and really think about  it. While you're engaged in it you are lost within in. And being lost within someone else is an amazing thing. That's what inspires everything I do.  Being lost but being more as a result. And wisdom is the same. Being lost in an experience, in an idea. And as a result you grow."

"We also felt that you should give back, it’s not just about who makes it, it’s about opening the doors. If you see a door, you go through it but you leave your foot in the door so that someone else can come in with you. That’s the kind of technique that we used. That’s strategies."
