Adam Asnan (OPT)

We'll do ourselves a mischeif..

About Me

In large, New and Avant-Garde music, I'm studying within the circles of Electroacoustic and Acousmatic composition, focusing primarily upon the areas of Musique Concrete and Environmental sound - I have however, a great interest in all other artistic practices, and a strong urge to paint, a pursuit that i am denying myself, for now..

In short, all of nature and its mechanisms, In particular rain and water, people in new lands, Politeness, invention, methodology, continuity, structure, minimalism, collage, Art Man Shoes, Eggs Benedict, cumberland sausages (any kind) with posh potato salad and mustard, Thorntons vienese truffle bars, Drum tobacco (light), coffee.
