...I like electric, analog...the sound of tape hiss and vinyl....and sometimes I like the sound of 2 songs playing at the same time.... I teach Yoga, study anatomy, read about mystics and ancient Egypt, painting and drawing, life science, The Bioneers, giant squids, strange biology.... the ocean... deep space, outerspace, inner space, the space in between, MySpace... art as the final frontier.
Anyone from another planet....
