it's all about art, music and people. being passionate about just being in the moment.
things i love ... my two cats, drum n bass, dancing, riding my scooter ... getting to spend time with friends, and meeting new people ... making beautiful things that bring art into you everyday life: art to wear, art furniture, custom bags ... art should be a part of life, not put on a shelf.
things i'm learning ... digital video production and animation. trying to absorb as much information as i can from people who are having fun doing it ... eventually getting into doing my own no-budget independent films.
people who know enough to look for me where i can be found. ;)
the stuff my friends share that's still being created ... drum n bass, alternative, jazz ... happy, sad, angst-filled ... all music is good, just depends on my mood. i'm always amazed at the ability of music to alter your perception of reality. Just saw Meat Beat Manifesto and they were awesome!
movies that challenge your beliefs, give you a new POV ... stories with interesting characters ... what the (bleep) do we know, yellow submarine, lock stock and two smoking barrels, dark city, the life aquatic, earth girls are easy, the fifth element, matrix, pi, girl with a pearl earring, love actually, animated shorts
Farscape, some HBO series ... anything without commercials ... no sports ... TV is mostly background noise while i make art.
Through the Looking Glass, Neal Stephenson, William Gibson ... i don't get much time to read.
people who challenge what is 'expected'.
