About Me

music + films rule my world. We will all die one day so I feel responsible to help preserve for posterity what I love while I'm alive.

My Interests

General interests are as follows:
Music
Film
I have other interests, but they pale in comparison. Ok, that's all for now.

I'd like to meet:



Music:

"What is wonderful about music is that it helps one to concentrate or meditate independently of thought, and therefore music seems to be the bridge over the gulf between form and the formless. If there is anything intelligent, effective and at the same time formless, it is music. Poetry suggests form, line and color suggest form, but music suggests no form. It creates also that resonance which vibrates through the whole being, lifting the thought above the denseness of matter, it almost turns matter into spirit, into its original condition, through the harmony of vibrations touching every atom of one's whole being. Beauty of line and color can go so far and no further; the joy of fragrance can go a little further; but music touches our innermost being and in that way produces new life, a life that gives exaltation to the whole being, raising it to that perfection in which lies the fulfillment of one's life."

Hazrat Inayat Khan , Vol II
