My Interests


Drawing, painting... listening to music, concerts. Hangin' with friends, watching movies, teaching myself new tricks, drawing some more... yeah. OH! And eating at cool restaurants... traveling too. And a suuuuuper crucial detail: Indian Food. I grew up on the stuff, so what can I say, it's part of me. I'm half curry.... seriously.

I'd like to meet:

Joss Whedon, Ridely Scott and a few other amazing storytellers.

Music:

Well, hear it goes:

Soundtracks: Firefly/Serenity, Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy, Gladiator, Black Hawk Down

Other Music: Ryan Adams, The White Stripes, Mike Doughty, Ray LaMontagne, The Raveonettes, BRMC, The Be Good Tanyas, Robert Earl Keen Jr., Elysian Fields, Green Day, Def Leppard, ACDC, and oh so much more...

Movies:

In no particular order: Firefly and Serenity, Gladiator, Blade Runner, Alien, Legend (and most anything else by Ridley Scott), Batman Begins, The Incredibles, the Mad Max trilogy, The Last of the Mohicans (not the expanded ed.), Ratatouille, Taxi Driver, The Blood of Heroes, Spirited Away, Aliens, Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy, Lord of the Rings Trilogy, The Bourne trilogy, Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, The Good the Bad and the Ugly, The Outlaw Josey Wales, Red River, Pale Rider, Once Upon A Time In The West, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid... and soooo many more.

Television:

TVs are good for dropping on people's heads when they're breaking into your house, but that's about it. I'll stick to shows on iTunes or DVD thanks... unless they bring back Firefly of course.

Books:

Currently redifining these perameters, but here's a temp list:

Anything Dr. Seuss, anything Shel Silvertien, God of Small Things, Lord of the Rings, My Name Is Asher Lev, Snowcrash, Native Speaker, lots of Louis L'Amour, The Virginian...

Heroes:

Joss Whedon, Ridley Scott, and my big brother Solomon.

Illustration/Art Brut

So, something that I've been encountering in reading, on the internet, and in my own thought process is: Where is illustration going? Is it still as valid as it ever was? (subquestion: Does Art Brut h...

Home-sick

So I awoke today feeling rather home-sick. I miss the light in the house in the early morning and drinking my tea. I miss the lived-in feel of the place, and I miss all the people. So the prospect of ...
