magic, juggling, silk screening, dadaism, surrealism, realism, existentialism, mccarthyism, invisibility, composition, photography, technicolor, typeography, printed matter, rock criticism, media, trash, treasure, time, space, dimensions, perceptions, textures, senses, yawning, stretching, sleeping, dreaming, yearning and earning, training and restraining, wielding and yielding, thinking and winking. my favorite foods are spinach and mushroom quiche, créme bruleé, paté (or comperable spreadable meat product), and anything pumpkin flavored. my favorite color is orange. in my spare time i like to send secret messages to others by blinking in binary code (it's more encrypted than morse code).

My Interests


I'd like to meet:



Music:

instant collaboration!

the residents
faust
pigface
tit wrench
crash worship
caroliner rainbow
gwar
smegma
art & language
the familiar ugly
witchy poo (all-time favorite "good time" band)

Movies:

two hand puppets quarrel over a real-life guinea pig in an exchange that soon escalates into a bloodthirsty feud.
time bandits, cloak and dagger, brain candy, east of eden, delicatessen, the manchurian candidate, god of cookery, withnail and i, the holy mountain, buffalo 66, me and you and everyone we know, the five obstructions, lars von trier's 10-hour epic "the kingdom," matthew barney's "cremaster cycle," most movies by werner herzog, wim wenders, luis buñuel, walt disney, harmony korine, stanley kubrick, jan svenkmejer or steven spielberg.
my favorite movie of all time: E.T. the extra terrestrial it's a touching story about a boy who lures a friendly alien into his home with candy and the cute little alien thanks him by touching him with his long, glowing finger. then, everyone says "ouch." it was also the highest grossing film of all time for over a decade after its release and used such colorful and timeless language as "be good," "i'll be right here" and "penis breath." witness: the arrival, the search, the desertion, the fear, the discovery, the friendship, the secret, the love, the warning, the signal, the mystery, the danger, the intrusion, the wonderment, the enchantment, the hope, the connection... has been made

Television:


Dispatched from Ork in his egg-shaped spacecraft, the lovable Orkan hurtles to Earth near the town of Boulder Colorado, where he is befriended by pretty college student Mindy McConnell. Mork's mission is to observe the bizarre customs of the earthlings and then report back to his great Orkan leader, Orson. He tries his best to adapt to his new environment - not an easy task when you innocently wear your clothes backwards, sit in a chair upside down, or blurt out "Shazbot!" when coke deals go awry. It's an out-of-this-world series of laughs and escapades when human being meets humanoid hurricane in Mork & Mindy.

i also like six feet under, mythbusters, adult swim, strangers with candy, the mighty boosh, wonder showzen, xavier renegade angel.

Books:


gulcher, psychotic reactions and carburator dung, do androids dream of electric sheep?, the electric kool-aid acid test, the fall, memoirs of a shy pornographer (or in quest of candlelighters), a whore like all the rest, pussy pow wow, the garbageman and the prostitute.

the reason why the government doesn't bother to censor books anymore is because they think that nobody reads. one of my earliest encounters with vulgarity in literature came in junior high school when i first read john steinbeck's "of mice and men" for a book report assignment. this filthy piece of smut thoroughly tarnished my moral fibre with its 108 profanities, 12 racial slurs, and 45 uses of God's name in vain. after that, there was no looking back ... i was destined to live a life in exile, outside the boundaries of what you mortals call "society."

Heroes:

baboon dooley, rube goldberg, ernest borgnine
