Yes, I do. Whatever people thought. I ever see people are enjoyed, and there is also people are watching and then make a question "what was that?" and sometimes people think I do a sound check LOL 

7. Genesis P-Orridge said "Our records were documents of attitudes and experiences and observations by us and other determinedly individual outsiders. Fashion was an enemy, style irrelevant.". What do your records represent to you?
more or less like that. For me it's like a painting which sometimes cannot be re-paint. Then as sound documentation or moments for me and my friends.
