-How long have you been painting?
7+ years.

-What kind of music do you like sketching/painting to?
I like mostly house/techno music because I DJ that music. But when it comes to hip-hop I like more of the old stuff, like Grandmaster Flash and Sugar Hill Gang.

-What are your three favorite movies of all time?
1) Happy Gilmore
2) Clockwork Orange
3) ...Movies with Jim Carrey

-Apart from writing, what are your other interests/hobbies in life?
Play records, drink and sometimes go snowboarding.

-When and why did you get into graffiti?
I'm not sure, but I started tagging around 1994 I think; the pieces and pannels maybe three years later. I didn't put so much time into graffiti in the beginning.
Ever since I was a kid I always looked at graffiti and loved it! maybe around 1988 or 1989. I always wanted to do something like the stuff I saw during that period; later it was I who was starting.

-What influences your style the most? (Definition of your style...?)
I don't know, I mostly like simple letters with a fresh flow, and it has to look clean!

-Your prefer...
Painting subways.

-Who are you down with and which writers do you respect?
There are many out there... But European writers with a fresh style definitely get my attention; that's the style I like.

-What do you think of the Norwegian graffiti scene?
Well, there aren't many good hardcore writers here because the system is so small! but the guys who do the real thing are often very impressive.

-Any special shoutouts or hellos?
To the ALL, ATK, THT, TEA, VCB... and those I forgot.
