“I saw lots of music devices. I loved playing with music devices. And like most of the world, I thought of a music device as a music device.

“I do not like to talk about the future. I don't like to be one of those people. It's so easy to have a very vague idea and say, oh, computers will be 3D-ish and then 10 years later I'll say I predicted it 10 years ahead.
