THE BELIEVER:
When you put out that manifesto a few years back, did you want people to follow your lead?
HARMONY KORINE:
At the time I wrote that I was pretty messed up in the head. I felt certain people would know what I was talking about. I dindn’t think it was going to take hold of the country.
THE BELIEVER:
There’s this line in the manifesto where you say, “Grammer means more when words are mispelled and used incorrectly in the traditional sense of the word.”
HARMONY KORINE:
My spelling is terrible and my grammar is terrible, but I never really thought about it until I saw Mark Gonzales”s poems. I saw that his misspellings really added to what he was doing. It means everything and nothing.
THE BELIEVER:
Another line says: ” A mistakist must believe in God over all else”.
HARMONY KORINE:
I was just thinking that the real world wasn’t enough, that science isnt’t enough, that a true mistake is some kind of magic, or maybe God.
THE BELIEVER:
You still think that’s true, that the real world isnt’ enough?
HARMONY KORINE:
Yeah.
