About Me

If you're some ran-dumb person adding me please have the common courtesy to write me first.

I often wonder if I take myself too seriously or if I don't take myself seriously enough...

my days are based more on a 36 hour turn-around...

I work on music as many hours a day as possible in one form , another or another . Sometimes I don't leave my house, let alone my room, for days on end in the process.

I smoke too many cigarettes, have a love/hate relationship with art, enjoy traveling, repeat myself when rambling, been reading a lot more often, enjoy arabica bean coffee, don't eat enough and I'm also a professional level idiot/jackass.. but that's how it goes, right?

If you really wanna know anything IMPORTANT just ask.

My Interests

Life (from be-ing to do-ing), Music (see below), Film, (see below), Art (McKean, Bacon, Dali and so many others), Travel (without it I'd go insane), Science (String Theory, the Golden Ratio), Nature (need I say more?), Coffee (get some Arabica in your system :D), the idea of Infinity (in ALL senses).

I'd like to meet:

Aliens and Demi-Gods.

Music:

Mostly electronic, dark and/or rock in roots... i enjoy a little bit of everything (in no particular order):

Skinny Puppy
Massive Attack
Thom Yorke
Aphex Twin

..seriously... the list goes on and on.

Movies:

i really dig anything with depth and charm (especially the retarded "more-gore-than-glory" type.. Make sure and see Feast).
It ranges anything that Bruce Campbell is in to Mel Brooks, Monty Python, Roman Polanski and i'm a huge sucker for old Steve Martin.

Television:

i pretend to watch it sometimes.. i get closer and closer to selling the damned thing everyday...

Other than that i use it to watch dvds and to play video games.

Books:

Some earlier works of William Gibson, SnowCrash by Neal Stevenson (s/p?), Otherland by Tad Williams (which is a bit slow moving but hopefully I'll get thru it...), then Abarat - Days of Magic, Nights of War by Clive Barker, Bruce Campbell - Make Love: The Bruce Campbell Way kicked some serious ass. Re-tackling Sun Tzu's The Art of War and Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom.. all still interspersed with Joseph Campbell and Nietzsche.. any other recommendations?
I enjoy a little of everything. Thrillers, Philosophy, Beat, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Comic Books...
not to mention plenty of webcomics... like (but not limited to):
Something Positive
Overcompensating
Comet 7
Kristy vs. The Zombie Army
