My Interests

I enjoy media to an unfair level. Being naturally poor at sport and only enjoying it for the social reasons (and the odd flash of unplanned brilliance) I tend to immerse myself in film, music and computer games. I'm a massive Guild Wars addict, but I recently cut my hours down to only about 7 a week. I do find time to play my bass and 6-string a bit, although when work gets tough I tend to shut down expressivley.

Music:

Shit, well, anything. I pretty much love most types of music, with a few notable exceptions. Whilst being able to acknowledge the disposability and compactness of pop music and why it is such a fantastic consumer invention, I really can't stomach prolonged exposure. I find it grinds the brain in to a fine pulp after a while. I also intensely dislike garage. It's like crap drum n bass with worse emcees. Other than that, everything goes. I adore Pendulum, Canibus (Stoupe-produced you bastards), Tool, Pearl Jam, Brand New, Children of Bodom, Chemical Brothers, UNKLE, Muse, Pitchshifter, Faithless... the list goes on. My legal music collection is large and growing.

Movies:

I have to say that, due to extreme exposure from the above section (be it live, in my room or on headphones) I am just a tad hard of hearing. Whilst this makes for amusing jokes('You're treading a thin line', 'about 10:30, my good sir') it does me I struggle a little when watching TV, especially if people feel the need to make any noise during it. Thus my preferred films tend to be subtitled. I love anything that they bring over here on the Tartan Asia Extreme label (Old Boy, Bitterssweet Life, The Eye), Anime as well (Blood, any Ghibli, Akira). Nor am I adverse to films from the continent. That aside, I don't disregard America and England I love films that pull no punches like American History X (that ending still makes me cry)

Television:

My first and continuing obsession was Babylon 5. Yes I have the box-set. Yes I've watched them all. God, I love it. And from a truly geeky point of view, it warms my heart to know that all the CGI, years ahead of its time, was done on good old Amigas. My latest obsession is Scrubs. After being acquainted with it when it first aired, I was mildly amused, but confused by the serious turn that parts of the episodes used to take. I didn't really get into it until my friends, Dingus and Wiggles took me to the next level. I watched all of season 4 and 5 in an appalling 8 day binge. God I love Scrubs too. And if any of oyu out there are even mildly acquainted with it, watch them all so that you can experience the wonderment of season 5 episode 20. I cried. Oh and finally, Wonder Showzen. Sometimes it hits mostly it misses, but how many shows can claim to have this plot development: God destroys Earth. Chancey travels to God and requests Rock, Paper, Scissors for the fate of the world. Chancey wins, God restores the Earth. God kills himself because it's the first time he lost anything. Chancey eats God with special God sauce.

Books:

I love the Serpentwar Saga, Raymond Feist. And the Dragonlance Chronicles, Weis and Hickman. And Tolkien. Seeing a trend here. Yes you've guessed it, I love to immerse myself in intricate mythologies of the fantastical kind. I love Sci-Fi too. Geekdars off for the following section, don't want to waste valuable equipment now. The last book I read was 'The Physics of Star Trek'. It was pretty good, an actually professor of physics explaining the problems behind and the possible solutions to all the technology in Star Trek. Geekdars back on now.
