Zitat des Tages über Lotus:
For me, I actually come from an electronic dance music background: house music, electro house, trance music, even. When I was coming out of school, basically, I discovered Brain Fever, Flying Lotus, J Dilla and all that. That was when I got excited about hip-hop and when the Flume project started.
You must be a lotus, unfolding its petals when the sun rises in the sky, unaffected by the slush where it is born or even the water which sustains it!
I woke up nights, worrying that Lotus was out of control - that no one would know what to do.
I'm delighted to be coming back to Formula 1 after a two-year break, and I'm grateful to Lotus Renault GP for offering me this opportunity.
The culmination of all of that was the decision to start a company, which became Lotus, to do a product, which became 1-2-3. By the time I reached that point it had been four years, and it felt like a lifetime, but really it was kind of evolutionary.
The Lotus is a couple of years newer than the Williams was, and as the pace of development in F1 cars is so quick, I expect it to be another completely different experience, but still one that I know I'm going to enjoy.
Yoga is immediately rewarding, whatever your level, because it's not about being able to attain the perfect lotus position. Each day, there is an improvement on the day before. It's not competitive; it's not a race. With yoga, the journey is the destination.
It was an easy choice to return with Lotus Renault GP as I have been impressed by the scope of the team's ambition.
When I heard Flying Lotus, I was like, 'Wow, okay, everything can be off the grid.'
I'm a huge fan of Flying Lotus. I like The XX's stuff.
I routinely failed to understand that 'simple and straightforward' would have been a much better product strategy for Lotus.
The lotus comes from the murkiest water but grows into the purest thing.
Writing is a very focused form of meditation. Just as good as sitting in a lotus position.
I also have a lot of preserved foods, things that will keep for a long time like dried fish, seaweed or lotus seed.
The seated lotus postures are an amazing way to go into meditation, or simply just to take a moment to ground oneself.
By means of microscopic observation and astronomical projection the lotus flower can become the foundation for an entire theory of the universe and an agent whereby we may perceive Truth.
Microsoft has had two goals in the last 10 years. One was to copy the Mac, and the other was to copy Lotus' success in the spreadsheet - basically, the applications business. And over the course of the last 10 years, Microsoft accomplished both of those goals. And now they are completely lost.
The producing side is always a hard thing for me. I look at Flying Lotus and see producers dropping instrumentals, and I think I should do it myself. I just try to be an artist for myself. That way, it's a lot easier.
Droplets of water would roll around the surface of a lotus leaf and not leave any trace.
I saw Lotus F1 racing as the best choice for me to progress my career, after considering several other options that were available to me.
Over the eons I've been a fan of, and sucker for, each latest automated system to 'simplify' and 'bring order to' my life. Very early on this led me to the beautiful-and-doomed Lotus Agenda for my DOS computers, and Actioneer for the early Palm.
