Art, design, music, technology, science, historical buildings- like castles, circus of horrors, paranormal, occult, nature, myths and legends, cats, trees, environmentalism, that programme Coast was quite
interesting, dying my hair and loads of other stuff.

Mainly Goth, ethereal and darkwave. But I do listen to other things like a bit of grunge, metal, industrial rockabilly, old skool punk, folk, early 90's dance and most 80's. (Pretty much anything that's not in the charts really)Most of the music I like is in my favourites list anyway as I have a habit of adding the profile I add the song from for future reference...Ooh What a good idea! But I don't think you can see that so oh well, there are too many to list here.
The Crow! The Dark Crystal, Pans Labrynth, Hedwig and The Angry Inch, The Craft, House Of 1000 corpses, Trainspotting, David Cronenburg films (I own a few), Spun, Love Object, Secretary, May, I love cheesy chick flicks and stoner comedies, hammer horrors, British cinema, erm, more films come to mind.. thirteen, American History X, Anarchists Cookbook, Human Traffic, Cruel Intentions, Blow, Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice, Hairspray, Cry Baby.
Neighbours, Eastenders..(in particular when Grant Mitchell is in it..'Allo Bruv!), La Famme Nikita, The l Word, Young ones, most 80's sketch shows, Sex and the City, loads.
Magazine wise I may be inclined to delve into things such as Creative Review, Contemporary, Rob zombie comics and Bizzare.
My favourite book ever is Stephen Smith's Addict.
I like to read mainly about social science issues, horrors and true stories along with the design books especially when it involves technology in the design or Vince Ray's work and sci-fi. Lots of things actually, even poetry such as John Hodge- remember this....
"Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family.
Choose a fucking big television, choose washing machines, cars,
compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good
health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed
interest mortage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your
friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose a
three-piece suite on hire purchase in a range of fucking fabrics.
Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning.
Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing
game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose
rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable
home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up
brats you spawned to replace yourself.
Choose your future.
Choose life."
Bansky - he's a legend.
Albert Einstein
Here's some of my favourite famous quotes from him ..............
"I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world."
"I am not only a pacifist but a militant pacifist. I am willing to fight for peace. Nothing will end war unless the people themselves refuse to go to war".
"Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning."
"Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better."
"Reading, after a certain age, diverts the mind too much from its creative pursuits. Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking."
"Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value."
"The only reason for time is so that everything doesn't happen at once."
“If at first, the idea is not absurd, then there is no hope for itâ€
