About Me



I'm bald . (in case someone wasn't 100% sure)

I have the obliviot shizzers.

A dandelion in a field of california poppies; a pigeon outside a cafe, eating leftover rice and tortilla chip bits; the rough around the diamond. These are the things I relate to.

I'm the guy standing on the street corner doing nothing but staring at the moon at dusk and smiling at it. Maybe even whispering sweet lunar nothings into the sky.

I'm also that guy who talks straight out of his ass for hours because he likes to hear the sound of his own voice, yet he hates the sound of his own voice, and doesn't yet realize he's talking for that reason and no one has told him to shut up.

Or, more simply put, I'm ultra self-aware about my lack of self-awareness.

My Interests

This is the greatest thing ever.
Accordions, audio recording, acoustic properties, conceptual art/performance, punk/DIY, dissent, kitsch, social impact of media, media impact of social, clarinets, hypocrisy, sock monkeys, spelling, electronics, potato patties, theremins, toy instruments, Aubrey Beardsley, Louise Brooks, noise, banjos, unicorns, vibrotomous.
The Museum of Jurassic Technology . .

I record my sleep every night.
