“A lot of the stuff you see on the walls here has built up over the time I’ve had this office,” King explains. “I got this space 12 years ago – I was living in a little studio apartment on Bank Street, and there was a sign on the door for an office to sublet. It has built up sedimentary layers of stuff. Why do I do this? In other places I’ve lived, as well, I’ve always put stuff up on the walls. In some ways, it’s a kind of processing – it’s like a physical version of Tumblr, where you’re grabbing little things you like and organizing, synthesizing. In another sense, whether it’s literal notes of something to do or a piece of art or a quote, they’re reminders – reminders of inspirations or feelings or moments.”
