I had always worked. I always had part-time jobs.

I don't have a dream project. I don't really think in those terms, to tell you the truth.
Robert Barry
Image
I usually, if I give a talk, I don't usually prepare anything. I just say - you know, I may stop talking by showing some video or slides of what I do but mainly I try to respond to what problems people have with my work.
Robert Barry
Image
My videos rarely run longer than 20 minutes. They're made for private viewing in your home or specifically either that or for a gallery situation where you sit and look.
Robert Barry
Image
I was good at art - always good at art.
