About Me


i was born south of the equator so i like upside down maps; it's an equally legitimate way to view the world. i'm a cinephile, i do dirty things to films. i'm a struggling artist, not in the sense of living dirt poor, but in the sense that i struggle to create. i have fish; bala sharks, eels, goby dragonfish, albino african dwarf frogs, african brownknives, catfish, and RIP fiddler crab. i have pistols and love going to the range. getting a bolt action rifle next, then a shotgun for clay pigeon shooting mostly. i love discussions that turn into arguments, i mean, when you're passionate about something it's bound to happen. as long as everyone is grown enough to laugh and have a drink afterwards it's fine and if not, well, that's fine too. i have plenty of amazing friends, i can stand to make a few enemies.
if ignorance is bliss then suffer me the masochists and sadists.
that's me on the far right with my cousin and uncle in south ozone park, queens; early '80s.
as this feller; just another poor sap trying to ride his scribbles to where heaven meets earth.
some things i done drawn:
a t-shirt for Eibol.
this hangs in the most prestigious of galleries, Dr. No's abode.
about us:
what he's saying is we're
The Planck length, denoted by l_P .. , is the unit of length approximately 1.6 × 10-35 metres, 6.3 × 10-34 inches, or about 10-20 times the diameter of a proton. It is in the system of units known as Planck units. The Planck length is deemed "natural" because it can be defined from three fundamental physical constants: the speed of light, Planck's constant, and the gravitational constant. It is the scale at which classical ideas about gravity and space-time cease to be valid, and quantum effects dominate.
we're small nigga, real small.
and then there's this:

My Interests

things that abuse the wretched sanity i can't seem to shake. the uncommon, the unorthodox, the unexplained, the uncertain, the unforgivable. beauty. mired, scarred, fatigued, irrepresible beauty.
