Where's the after party?

About Me

I was born in Madrid Spain, then moved to Argentina, then Washington D.C., Chile, Bolivia and finally Austin were I've been for the past 7 years. Constant travel opened my eyes to the rest of the world and made me a very open minded person. I'm always open to new experiences and have an insatiable thirst for knowledge. Even though i'm not a spiritual person i have a very deep appreciation for life and nature. Music is my drug of choice (among others ;) I've been hooked on electronic/techno music for ten years and will never stop loving it. Music motivates me and gives me focus. I'm a graphic artist and music is my muse. When i'm not at work or at school i'm in my studio and rarely go out... well, at least not during the day. Partying is my other addiction. Chances are if you've ever been to any venue where they spin records then you've probably seen me. I love to dance (popping, liquid etc), so i only go out to dance clubs or any place that plays good music, not the ghetto shit most clubs in austin play. I hate bars. Most of my friends think I'm nuts cause i like to party to much and tend to go overboard. But i do have a fairly level head and am extremely easy going. I hang out with all sorts of different people, variety is the spice of life. I'm more of a giver than a receiver, it makes me feel like a better person. I like taking care of my friends.... and i also like getting them fucked up :) I'm manipulative and a really bad influence, but i'm also a blast to party with, and one of the best friends you can have. Bjork - All is Full of Love
Video by Chris Cunningham, probably the best music video director ever. He's worked with Aphex twin, Autechre, Bjork, Squarepusher and others. Go to youtube and check out the rest of his work, simply amazing.

My Interests

My passions are art, music, technology, and women. I couldn't live without any of them.

I'd like to meet:

People with similar interests in art, music or anyone that likes to party. People that are stupid, close minded, dishonest, flakey, selfish, materialistic, or cause drama need not apply.P.S. If you're going to invite me and i've never met or seen you before, and we don't have jack shit in common then you should at least message me first cause otherwise you'll get denied... unless you're hot ;-). I'm not here to increase my friend count, i already know i'm cool and i don't need myspace to tell me that.

Music:

Mostly electronic. To many djs/producers to name but i prefer breaks, electro, house, downtempo dnb, and the real trippy experimental shit. This music player streams off the BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix and changes weekly (I stole their stream)... pretty sweet just hit play.

Movies:

i watch way to many movies. I mostly like independent and foriegn films. Fuck all the hollywood crap.

Television:

Not enough time for tv and i'de rather not rot my brain.

Books:

I read alot of astronomy, science, history, and sci-fi books. Though lately i've only been reading books on animation, graphics, 3d modeling, opengl and c++ coding, and technical manuals.

Heroes:

Akira Kurasawa 1910-1998
Stanley Kubrick 1928-1999
M. C. Escher 1898-1972
Jim Henson 1936-1990
