“I was also in the opening ceremonies of the 1988 Olympics when I was 12. A thousand kids rehearsed for two years to make topographical shapes of Olympic events, like 80 kids would run this way and 80 kids would run that way in a line and make the skis move, on a figure that’s made up of another 500 kids. It was pretty formative to take that on as a kid.”
