About Me

A shy boy with scraggly hair.

I've always wanted a brother... and to be as cool as Guy Picciotto.

My Interests

ANALOGUE VERSUS DIGITAL | FLICKR | LAST.FM | VIRB | FACEBOOK
Fell, destroyed. Red medicine. Pattern recognition. Visit me in my dreams tonight. You were always running away. Y'know; for kids...? All I'll say is: 'Icarus'... and if you don't get that, well, you should probably read more. Let's Not Wrestle, Mt. Heart Attack. Can't you see this hate is consuming you all? We've got no reason to lie! We're no here. The moon is so bold, it conquers the soul - like that very first moment we kissed. I love you, I love you, I love you... What's yr name? Decapitated. What's yr name? Eddie Kidd, yeah!

I'd like to meet:

HOPES: A foxy lady who likes Fugazi & Q And Not U, is into experimental cooking (you could teach me and I could be grateful!)... We shall drink apple juice and wine primarily!

CELEBRITIES: Scarlett Johansson, Guy Picciotto, Michel Gondry (but with subtitling active), Bradford Cox, Gordon Ramsay, Chris Morris, the graphic design equivalent of Yoda, & my missing side-kick.

Music:

Vulnerability, accidents, risk-taking, inspiring, grit, discordant, Dischord - dance , hypnotic, fade-up, escapism...
NOTE TO SELF: Good music will always exist, if you can find it. If you can't, people entranced by good music will always exist. And if that fails, try nostalgia. Though if that's empty, write a review of your ideal fictional band and create it.
Favourites (a mix of now and forever): Fugazi, Deerhunter, Jarcrew, Liars, Sonic Youth, PRE, My Bloody Valentine, Erase Errata, Deerhoof, Animal Collective, Panda Bear, Can, No Age, Melt Banana, Health, Kill Kenada, Q And Not U, Mogwai, Of Montreal.

Movies:

The Hudsucker Proxy, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Night on Earth, In The Soup, 2001:A Space Odyssey, Dead Leaves, Star Wars (the original trilogy, episodes IV-VI), Leon, Cowboy Bebop and Princess Mononoke.
