About Me

I'm working on a PhD in Materials Science & Engineering, a Master's Degree in Computer Science (high performance computing) both at USC, a 2-3 piece rock band, a 7 piece post? glam rock band, a 2 piece quieter kind of band, and some other things.Yeah that's pretty much the story about me at the moment. That and just trying to stay sane amidst the flood of information I subject myself to daily.I've held this space on the web since 2000: www.nutation.net but it's not that interesting. I do still think nutation is a cool word, especially definition 4.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People who can open up a map and see between 1 and 2. People who can see past the TV veneer of LA to its crusty heart. People who have some idea what they do or want to do in general.
