I hope they take away a sense of empowerment and liberation from listening to somebody who had difficulty finding her place and then managed to start to find it, and that they feel inspired to do the same. I hope that they hear something interesting and a little different to what's on the radio. I hope that they can lose themselves in it. But I'm a confused person and I don't really consider myself an authority to give other people other answers, other than that there are no answers.

I feel safe when I'm alone. It's been an adjustment for me to let people into my life. I've had to do that somewhat with this Allie X project, although it really is fuelled by a sense of anonymity and non-identity. On a personal level, I have trouble connecting with people, so alone is where I feel safest, with all my little health foods that I like and my music that I like to listen to and my shows that I like to watch and my piano and laptop.

Even though I have never felt very feminine, I’ve never had much of a confusion about my gender. I do really relate to the feeling of not quite understanding this mechanism that I’m supposed to be living in and getting around in as a physical being. I wouldn’t want to claim that I was any kind of spokesperson though, because I’m sure what I’ve experienced is nothing close to other people. But I do relate.

"Part of the concept of X is that it’s not me that I want people to emulate or copy or be inspired by, the X means that they can take that unknown thing and adapt it in any way that they want and it can become their way of being themselves"

"The concept of the human body is fascinating to me and I’ve always felt not quite in my own body, as if I was maybe put in the wrong body."
