About Me


Film is my favourite kind of art. It's power to inspire the human spirit surpasses all other media. Only one (or two) things inspire me more. I one day aspire to use the power of film to it's utmost potential.
You can see my art at deviant art.
People that use my conditioner and not my shampoo throw my world into chaos.
Boring documentaries about mongolian forts put my mind at rest.
I absolutely adore the sanskrit language and the ancient words of the vedas. I'm trilled when people bring up topics concerning the nature of reality, illusion and the imperishable soul. Anything else is simply filling in time. I am sick of this shallow world and the seemingly innate tendency to step on others to grab at petty, transient things.
Brhadaranyaka Upanisad 1.3.28
asato ma sad gamaya
tamaso ma jyotir gamaya
mrtyor mamrtam gamaya
From delusion lead me to truth
From darkness lead me to light
From death lead me to immortality.

Isa Upanisad 11
vidyam cavidyam ca yas
tad vedobhayam saha
avidyaya mrtyum tirtva
vidyayamrtam asnute
He who knows both knowledge and action, with action overcomes death and with knowledge reaches immortality.
Katha Upanisad 6.7
indriyebhyah param mano
manasah sattvam uttamam
sattvad adhi mahan atma
mahato vyaktam uttamam
Beyond the senses is the mind, and beyond the mind is reason, its essence. Beyond reason is the Spirit in man, and beyond this is the Spirit of the Universe, the evolver of all.
Katha Upanisad 6.10
yada pancavatisthante
jnanani manasa saha
buddhis ca na vicestate
tam ahuh paramam gatim
When the five senses and the mind are still, and reason itself rests in silence, then begins the Path supreme.
Mundaka Upanisad 2.2.8
bhidyate hrdayagranthis
chidyante sarvasamsaya
ksiyante casya karmani
tasmin drste paravare
And when he is seen in his immanence and transcendence, then the ties that have bound the heart are unloosened, the delusions of the mind vanish, and the law of Karma works no more.
I finally get to post the new music video I did for Lord Byron! Directing, Production Design and Editing by me. Cinematography by Richard Bell.
And finally, an amusing word about myspace. "Myspace is a good indicator of the decline of western civilization. On MySpace, most interaction is virtually anonymous, shallow flattery, and worth is based on image and the amount of people you can collect as "friends". Not that this is wildly dissimilar from real life, but MySpace is set up to operate this way and perpetuates this mind set to the younger kids using it. It makes them focus on image, on vanity, and nothing more, even more-so than corporate advertising does. And too many people on there glorify their dysfunctions. It's kind of funny if it weren't so sad. There is no constructive discussion, its all about vanity and ego and conformity. It's BIG on conformity. And now Rupert Murdoch, the conservative republican owner of Fox News (one of the many pro-Bush republican propaganda news channels in the USA) has purchased MySpace and has plans to push its conservative, racist, pro-war, pro-republican agenda and propaganda to the users of MySpace (they actually admitted that this is their plan in an interview with the BBC news in the UK)." - Sean Brennan from London After Midnight.
