Arvo is interviewed on the venerable site Chain D.L.K.  Feel free to click on the link for the whole thing.   
Of the millions and millions of xeroxed, hand-stitched, bound in 
aluminum documents existent, there is the disembodied sense of a human 
hand, tweaking the mixers to sculpt the air, to try and tame the raging 
machines. You can see where they have pasted the covers, or the tape run
 backwards. Listening to Arvo Zylo‘s
 music, you get the sense that he loves handmade things. His fingers are
 in every element of the production. He promotes his own material. He 
makes the records and record sleeves himself. he sends off mutant 
transmissions into the aether with his Delirious Insomniac Freeform Radio
 program, where he spews his own underground noise, and helps spread the
 gospel of other sewer-dwelling mutants. Listening to and looking at his
 creations, they are uniquely personal and utterly sincere. He seems 
like a person with a curious mind, who wants to see how things will 
sound. He has a refreshing, old school industrial vibe to his 
sensibilities, working with influential noise artists like Boyd Rice and
 GX-Jupiter Larsen from The Haters. You can practically visualize the 
sparking machines, the tinny radios belching static. His experience and 
craftsmanship, as well as a history in the visual arts, allow him to 
properly place artifacts in the sound field, yet he never stops moving 
forward and trying new things, and he’s not afraid to fail.
