About Me

Mostly lost and sometimes artistic, HALOaffect continues on his unstoppable march to obscurity. Still only half way there...His so called 'art' has been described by intelligent observers as 'pop goth' and a bit like street or graf (to give you some idea of his place in the artistic scheme of things. Though not everyone agrees with these assessments)Lately it has taken a turn for the Emo, however, with much bleeding of girls and hearts with locks on them. Obviously this is cool.Press him and he'll say something about reconsidering the role of so called 'negativity' in society and art, the value of things and people who are currently devalued and ignored, the peculiar virtues of sorrow, loneliness, guilt, confusion, and failure, disturbing the comfortable and comforting the disturbed and so on. So if youre more or less happy with yourself and your life you probably wont much like the art. But if youre twitchy and depressed, you might like it more. Why not let him know? (if, in fact she is a him).The light hurts. Why won't it touch me gently?...

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Honestly. Dinner party questions are for people who have enough friends to have dinner parties.*sigh*You have to say Jesus, because somehow everyone just LOVES that guy (or not) and how he was so wise and a beautiful spirit and so on. But we don't really know what sort of dinner guest he would have been, the only record existing suggests hes a kind of speechy, centre of attention guy, and i only see that getting worse as he hits the 'water'. But yeah, DEFINITLEY Jesus.But then you have to say, like, Gautama, Muhammed, Moses, to show a) how you have hipster knowledge of other eminent religeous figures and b) youre so open minded. Personally I don't see this working out, language and cultural barriers being what they are. But still, I must appear cool, so in you come. Oh, a miniature zen garden, with a bonsai tree and a little rake. Thatll look great on my desk, Gautama. Baklava? You just want to see me get fat Muhammed. You know I cant resist your middle eastern sweets, you rascal. OH. A live goat. Thats ah, the gift that keeps on giving alright Moses. Look, its giving right now. On the rug. You really, really shouldn't have.And then, to show how edgy and alternative you are, you have to throw in freaks like Aleister Crowley and Catullus or Attila. And some proto feminist myth figures for political correctness like Boudicca, Lilith, or actual feminist figures like Naomi Wolf, Elizabeth I, Erica Jong etc And you just cant be cool without some crazy artists twitching on the carpet, but the canon is so vast...Jean Genet, Byron, Anouilh, Plath, Tracy Emin, Lou Reed, Sophocles, Sartre, Gaiman, Vasquez, Delasquez, Lennon, DiFranco, have I dropped a name you like yet? I could go on. Political figures (whose politics you agree with) religeous figures (whose stated or practiced faiths dont threaten you) artists who are apparently cool/acceptable at present, and of course, people who play guitars. Cause the world needs more of that.Honestly, this question makes me wish I hadn't thrown away my revolver. Ill be in the kitchen if Jesus wants more sushi. Specifically, Ill be in the beer fridge in the kitchen. With Stalin. Turns out hes a great listener.I think its going to be one of those dinner parties.Or, I misunderstood the question, and I really mean I want to M33t H0t G1RLZ 4 FUN T1M35. oh, you think Im joking?
