Moby writes and records much of his material in a one-room home studio that's filled with keyboards, albums, TVs, guitars and a mixing board. On the walls are posters of his grimacing face 10 times its normal size. In real life he's much less intimidating, looking like a scrawny kid with a receding hairline. His studio is the one room in the house brimming with consumer products. Moby's distaste for materialism is well-documented in the liner notes he's written.
Poverty can be bad, but it can also be fine.
Like most of Moby's essays, there is a sense of spirituality suggested throughout. There are so many different sects with distinctive tenets that it's hard to define it exactly. The only thing I can compare it to is getting married. All the while being aware that there are other attractive people in the world, but for some reason this person fits. When Moby was 20 a friend convinced him to read the New Testament and, even though he wasn't raised in a religious household, he immediately felt in tune with it.
