"You don't invent technology and then decide what to do with it - you come up with an artistic problem, and then you have to invent the technology in order to accomplish it.
So, it is the opposite to what everyone thinks it is, and any Artist will tell you that.
And Art - on ALL levels - is just Technology.
Which why - people will say 'Monkeys can do paintings'
Well, they can't, really.
They can do scribbling, they can do, like my 2 year old does -but if you want to say ' I want to convey an emotion, to another Human Being', that's something only Human Beings can do.
Animals can do it by roaring in your face or biting your hand off (that usually has an effect).
But to do it in a painting; to do it in a play, or a story, in poetry - or anything that's in The Arts - you have to be a Human Being.
The Patron creates The Propaganda - and what I wanted to do was go back to some of the Older Propaganda, which was consistant through ALL of The Societies, Mythology -
Which is to say "What Do They ALL Believe..?"
Because all of this propaganda was created INDEPENDENTLY.
And what are these things which they ALL believe, which is, Relationships with your Father, Relationships with your Society, Relationships with Your History, Relationships with The Gods - all of this stuff, it's old, but there were psychological motiffs that were created, through storytelling, primarily ORAL storytelling, that explained WHAT they believed in and WHO they believed in.
So what I wanted to do was go back and find the psychological motiffs that underlie that - those grow out of Popularism.
And to say that - not all - but a majority of people, BOYS, have a certain psychological relationship with Their Father -
And that's been going on through History, and trying to explain that to say :
"We Know Your DARKEST SECRET. And Therefore, You're Part of US.
Because We All Know The SAME THINGS -
We Know What You're Thinking About Your Mother; We Know What You Think About Your Bother; We Know What You Think About Your Father REALLY -"
- George Lucas
