About Me

I'm kind of an odd guy, my view of things in reality is quite different than what most people experience. I believe this helps fuel my imagination to create and craft my design, art and music.Weapons of Choice:
Computer..... 20" Intel iMac + Core Duo Macbook
Digital Camera..... Canon Rebel XTi
Image Software..... Photoshop CS3 + Aperture
Music Software..... Pro Tools + Garage Band
Video Games..... Nintendo Wii + Nintendo DS + PS One + Sega Saturn

Check out my work at http://www.motorde.com . Also I've been recording some music for a small EP, you can listen to some tracks on my webpage. The EP is titled Vitar: The Tides of Yesterday. Although it has been coming along at a snails pace, I hope to complete it some more in the winter or spring.

My Interests

my interest begin with music, which always gives me motivation to do graphic, web and music design for my website, mótor de. Nine Inch Nails has been a primary focus of influence and motivation for my work, as well as the icelandic princess Björk.

I enjoy Japanese movies, music and anime. While heavy j-pop, I like Gackt and the electronic genuis Mondo Grosso. Casshern and Moonchild are some of my favorite Japanese movies, while on the anime side I still watch the occasional Cowboy Bebop episode, as well as keeping up with the more recent series.

anything I do computer wise is done with Apple products and my Mac. I act like a kid in a candy store when I visit the Apple store. my iPod is updated daily with the Howard Stern Radio Show, as well as a nice rotation from my music library.

I'd like to meet:

open minded people, who are willing to share all. I usually never try to hold back, despite being a bit shy, hope to find people who feel the same way.
