With a degree in Design, I have an interest in all forms of the medium. I am particularly interested in architecture because of my background in carpentry. I love space and form, but have specialized interests in themed entertainment design, film production design,hand-drawn animation, and art direction. I am also an enormous fan of a old buildings, whether it be an old house or an old movie theatre.
Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, John Lasseter, the guys from Aerosmith, most of the guys at Pixar, Jim Carrey, Teri Hatcher, Sara Evans, Tony Baxter (Walt Disney Imagineering exec), Morgan Freeman (fellow Mississippian), Dane Cook, Harrison Ford, Tom Hanks, Samuel L. Jackson, Jimmy Buffett, Johnny Depp, Dustin Hoffman, Robert Rodriguez, tribesmen and members of some of the indigenous tribes of Africa and India, and, if they were living, Jim Henson and Walt Disney.
Why should we limit ourselves to a certain type of music? I believe in diversity, myself. I like the 3 M's: Miles (Davis), (Thelonius) Monk, and (Charles) Mingus. No one moves me like Frank, Sammy, and Deano when it comes to the sounds of the lounge. Classical? Love the stuff. From Beethoven to Bach to Stravinsky. Movie scores make the list with John Williams, Danny Elfman, James Newton Howard, etc. Country? Depends on who it is: Brad Paisley, Sara Evans, Mississippi's own Faith Hill, just to name a few. Rock includes Van Halen (I am a fan of Sammy rather than Diamond Dave), Nirvana, Creed, 3 Doors Down (more Mississippi-folk), Hendrix, Janis Joplin, 60's rock, 70's rock, 80's rock, etc. On occasion, I will even take in a little gospel: the Isaacs, The Hinsons, old Petra, Jeff and Shari Easter. Remember, kids, its all about diversity.And on top of all of that, I can sit and listen to African tribal music, Indonesian gamelan music, Japanese flute music, and most any native music from around the globe.
I am a fan of old, black-and-white movies, with anything made by Hitchcock or anything with Humphrey Bogart in it. I prefer something that is story-driven rather than a movie that is carried by special effects, or at least a balance between the two. All Spielberg movies, though, are the exception to the rule.
Yeah, like I have the time to watch it...
I am a fan of Micheal Crichton, Stephen King, and the occasional John Grisham. I like to read the classics (i.e. Jules Verne, H.G. Wells, Mark Twain) and read them as often as time and work allows.
My parents! Who else would put up with my weirdness and still call me their kid???Great designers, creatives, and philosophers of the past from around the world
