My Interests

Clear blue skies, intrinsic truths, cats and their keepers, and any form of artistic, political, or personal expression that makes me FEEL something. Oh...and don't forget heartfelt weeklong osculation. Huzzah.

I'd like to meet:

David Lynch, Thom Yorke, and a cinnamon-cream-skinned goddess/muse to trigger endless waves of epiphany and inspiration. Otherwise, happy to confab with good folks who can see the proverbial light and step aside to get out of their own way...

Music:

Tobias Tinker, Quentin Grey, Radiohead, Talk Talk, The Police, JS Bach, Godspeed You Black Emperor, The Approach, Plantlife, Chrystal Leigh, Peter Gabriel, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Rage Against the Machine, Sigur Ros, Angelo Badalamenti, Julee Cruise. In all honesty, it changes constantly, as music preference shifts with mood and the natural resonance of one's own body.

Movies:

Brazil, Elephant Man, Donnie Darko, PI, Rushmore, Heaven, Run Lola Run, A Clockwork Orange, Lost Highway, Blue Velvet, Wild at Heart, Eraserhead, Time Bandits, The Shining, Dazed and Confused, Waking Life, Fight Club, Ran, Five Deadly Venoms, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, Irreversible, Ponette, City of Lost Children, Delicatessen, Big Trouble in Little China, Chasing Amy, Dangerous Liaisons, Being John Malkovich, Hoop Dreams, Doctor Strangelove, U-Turn, Superman II, The Wrath of Khan, Behind the Green Door, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, Requiem for a Dream, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Akira, City of God, The 7th Seal, Crimes and Misdemeanors, Twin Peaks - Fire Walk With Me.

Television:

Twin Peaks, Six Feet Under, The Prisoner, X Files (1 thru 4), Gatchaman, oldschool Doctor Who, Buffy/Angel, Northern Exposure, and any televised incarnation of brokensaints

Books:

The Tao Te Ching, The Prophet, The Bhagavad Gita, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, The Little Prince, Dune, Watchmen, The Sandman Anthology, Ishmael, The Tibetan Book of the Dead, Story of My Life, Life After God, Lord of the Rings, The Secret Tarot, Broken Saints.

Heroes:

Kahlil Gibran, Gandhi, Special Agent Dale Cooper, Darren Aranofsky, Richard Linklatter, Tobias Tinker, Hedwig, and hopefully my deathbed self.
