surreal experiences, nature, intense emotions, good music, sensuality, fine art, healing, fine food, scary clowns, old dolls, mannequins and buried ancient knowledge...
I'm interested in meeting anyone who has a deep sense of respect and appreciation for her/himself, other freaks, and the planet that sustains us. What I do when I meet such people always varies; I generally love people and try to avoid holding preconceived notions about whom or what I want to meet.
Cindytalk, Coil, Crash Worship, Dave Seaman, old Cure, Bauhaus, Curve, Portishead, Simple Question and many others... I like music that moves me, stirs my passions, grabs my gut and my body and makes me shiver, cry or dance.
Anything by David Lynch, occasional escapist crap like comic book action adventure flicks, and provocative films that make me think or feel something truly unusual...
Don't watch TV ever... A television is a mind control machine; they call it "programming" for a reason. That said, I absolutely love watching old Twin Peaks episodes over and over again on DVD or tape.
anything by Tom Robbins, Haruki Murakami, William Gibson, Neal Stephenson, plus many, many more...
I can't think of any heroes, really.
