I did this show for Sky called 'King of the Nerds', which was a reality show looking for the world's biggest nerd, essentially, celebrating the geek, which is also what I'm about.
The spirit is the thing I most love about my kind of geekdom.
Being a Muslim in America, I've noticed that there's a ton of crossover between the Muslim community and geekdom.
Traditionally nerd-based culture is now a big sector of pop culture.
My background really comes from geekdom and the idea of building a smart machine. If we're going to build a smart machine, let's have it read good books.
Geeks are people who love something so much that all the details matter.
I think everyone's a geek in some way.
My theater nerd world and my comic friend world are colliding... That's the thing that I was nerdy about, was theatre. I wasn't as much into the comic book stuff. So it's fun to see there are people that are into that that are also theatre nerds like me.
There's all these little bubbles of nerddom.
I am the biggest geek and fan of film and TV, and I just go through phases.
