About Me

I write film reviews for Willamette Week. I work in a library. I make music. I make movies. I write fiction. Or I like to say I write fiction. And actually, I don't make movies, I make music videos once in a while.
I made this video recently:
Problems?--Resistance is Futile from Chris Stamm on Vimeo .
And this one:
The Ax--Black Sea from Chris Stamm on Vimeo .
A sample of my fiction:
My penis-shaped phone rang. I threw my penis-shaped X-Box controller down. My penis-shaped guy’s penis-shaped gun was frozen, paused, stuck pointing at a shadow in the penis-shaped door on the penis-shaped spaceship before him. I tripped over my penis-shaped shoes on the way to the penis-shaped phone, and fell face first into my cat’s penis-shaped water dish, in which little bloated penis-shaped bits of her penis-shaped food, which she liked to transfer from her penis-shaped food bowl into her penis-shaped water bowl, floated in penish-shaped patterns, a la a penis-shaped Busby Berkeley musical number.
My band: The Ramjac .
