My Interests

too many things so i'm easily distracted: but my current obsessions are: iceland, haruki murakami, playing my guitar, the american dream, the west wing, harajuku fashion, morning pages, the power of art critics, john mighton's plays, the law of attraction, american opera, pop culture, tango, this american life, why haven't i learned german?, classical literature, living in two cities at once, the role of the artist in our culture and how i and my work can participate in changing the world

I'd like to meet:
