About Me

A bit left of center, with a tendency to exercise wit when available and sometimes more painfully truthful than need be... Write noise reviews and plenty other professional pieces... take pictures like a fiend; if you are interested, please check it out for yourself at http://www.flickr.com/photos/77535619@N00/ Have a passion for sound... the harsher the better... Born and raised in Chicago, I have attended University in Colorado and Italy... then in 1998 moved, living like a hermit in southwestern Japan for over 8 years... Now in 2007 I have just returned to Chicago to begin living a new life... Love more than I should... and at times my hate goes even further...

My Interests

Harsh noises, artisty-fartsy photography, art and its many known and understandable forms to the incomprehensive and incomplete... especially, literature and poetry... cultures, and the clashes of... used book stores, candles, astronomy, porn shops... consumer behavior, seedy areas of life and of the mind... psychology, the best way to make coffee and tea... Oh yeah and I have a very serious urge, (weakness?) to write when in the presence of a great rack...

I'd like to meet:

Real people with plenty of attitude...

Music:

Noise

Movies:

The stranger the better...

Television:

none

Books:

Anything that has connections to my interests box... but I like books by the following authors: Maruo Suehiro, Bellow, Deleuze, Kafka, Yukio Mishima, Quiroga, Shusaku Endo, Baudelaire, Sacher-Masoch, Nabokov, Tanasaki Juichiro, Rimbaud, Michael Gira, Amy Yamada, Shiga Naoya, etc...

Heroes:

Mina... and my father... mother and sister...

Two more...

These are the last ones, at least for now. I want to see what the reactions are to these written observations, before I venture in sharing any more. This next one took place in a Starbucks in Japan...
