About Me

afropunk/innacitymisfit/artist/composer/performer:I moved to the Bay Area in '99 to study art. I've since graduated and am employed and have kept up a good performance/exhibition record.....Got accepted to University in NY fall '05, back in school and working hard to never be under-employed again. What's up with me? Who am I?I am a very private yet political individual. I have loved and I have been loved. I am a quiet person and I appreciate quiet. I love art and music, yet some of the music I like and make is loud, noisy, chaotic and formless. I don't consider myself hip at all. I spend my free time performing my sound art stuff djing, watching anime, reading manga, books on music and Zen and listening to music. what's your story?

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

people who are kind, open and intelligent with interests in contemporary art/architecture/Zen/ Wang Kar-Wai/experimental and improvised music.
