Quiet

No matter where you go... there you are.

About Me

I was a photographer and artist living in Santa Ana, CA in an artist colony known as the Advertising Arts Building. Now, I work for a video game company in Texas. I captured light like there was a bounty on it, but the bounty got too small. Still, I see through sound and fog into an open door of information and am currently working on communicating with the lone star state lightning. Nodal points reveal themselves in disturbing frequency allowing insight into the workings of memes and systems that populate our culture. Let's leave the future behind us, for I see that the future as now.

What just happened?

What Just Happened?So NASA spent hundreds of millions (maybe billions) to send a probe into space to collect cosmic dust from solar winds.  You know... stuff that can't normally enter our atmosphere. ...

Labelled indie by their major label.

I would like to state my opinion that a band that is on an major label (such as Geffen or EMI) yet refer to themselves and their music as indie are total shitheels. Sellouts.  I'll still listen ...
