About Me



when i visualize music, i see different rates of waterflow. i don't see colors or shapes. i see facial expressions. i see cause and effect.

i play drums, piano, guitar, dancing and some bass. aaron fifer is my number 1 fan, behind brody. ---dreams are memories---my goal in life is to kill death---i cut myself off from all ties, to rebind them NEW---

two things are connected.assosiations are developed.

to hear more music from me, go to --- symmetry/symmetry & Charles L. Allen
check out the IKE Box.
