Music:

Tunes: U2, Sting, New Order, Kitaro , Chris Isaak, Miles Davis, Preservation Hall Jazz Band ; taiko drums, new age, jazz, rock, blues

Movies:

Flicks: "Office Space", "Swingers", the "Qatsi" trilogy , "Blade Runner", "Macross", "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels", and of course, the original "Star Wars" trilogy.
