Art and music. Previews and gigs..usually the smaller ones. Or festivals. I love drinking and talking probably far too much.. and also being alone.
The high life.. good food, good wine/beer/tequila, good coffee with good company..
Stuff and things..
Science fascinates me; physics, neurology, psychology.. ologies..
Making sounds on instruments - wouldn't constitute music but I like it anyway..
Stupidly high heels and corsets..
Travelling the world.. meeting people.. experiencing life..
Contemporary art.. Great artists I admire: Marcel Duchamp, Richard Wentworth, Ceal Floyer, Bruce Nauman, Lawrence Weiner, Cornelia Parker, Joseph Kosuth, Mona Hatoum, Martin Creed, Martin Kippenberger, Sol le Witt, Gabriel Orozco, Nina Saunders, Anselm Kiefer, Boyd Webb, Fiona Banner, Heimo Zobernig, Magdelana Abakanowicz, Rebecca Horn, Christoph Büchel, Doris Salcedo, etc, etc

You need to buy this album:
The most amazing thing to be released this year!!
Yes I like films. I have a really shit memory for films though - if you asked me if I'd seen a particularly film I probably wouldn't be able to tell you. I don't have favourite films and I've seen a lot of crap films. But from the dredges of my memory: Film makers/directors I admire include David Lynch, Johan Grimonprez, Chris Cunningham.
Throw away your TV!! It is an evil mind control device!! Yeh there are a few good programmes but 99% is utter brainwashing shite.
Books are great too :) Douglas Adams is one of my favourite writers along with Iain Banks, Rob Grant, Irvine Welsh, John Berger, Bertrand Russell, Rosalind Krauss... Bruce Nauman's writings are great too. Of course Bram Stoker's Dracula is a classic. Other great books: Shallow Graves in Siberia by Michael Krupa , The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera

I have no idols although I admire many people. Bill Hicks. Bill Bailey. Genius.
