Of course, you also need to live and we need to make things work and we need to run our studios and we need to make things continue [in] our lives. I alwas have been doing other things to support my art because i try [to] produce art at the edge so whatever i try to do it needs to be at the very edge. So i try to use the latest technology, i try to use some very political issues because i am interested in those issues. I try to [produce] work that is very cutting edge. And then, of course it is not easy to explain this to people - forget about selling this. Even explaining is a big issue. So i have always been doing other things to support my art. For example, i [have been] work[ing] in media for many years - i worked for advertising companies, pr agencies, television companies. And then, i have been teaching for many years - i teached in New York, i have been teaching in Istanbul but of course doing two things is not very easy. Doing a couple of things at the same time is a hard task because you need to shift totally the way you think.
