About Me

I live just on the edge of Philadelphia
My true love is photography
I prefer 19th c. printing techniques to modern day B+W
and wish that I could own a collection of antique cameras

I like sewing clothing and building sets for photo shoots
and
do not fear
table saws

I'm pretty quiet for the most part
and spend much of my free time either
reading
or
taking apart my computer and putting it together again
or
editing/preparing photos for the the day
I finally get my website in order

I read voraciously, and usually more than one book at once
I am really a big dork at heart.

On the rare occasions that I am not working,
or hiding at home
I can usually be found out on the town,
wearing a tutu and dancing.

I update my LiveJournal much more often.

My Interests

Photography, E.J. Bellocq, watching movies, peanut butter, assemblage art, piercings, Joseph Cornell, Alice in Wonderland {especially Sir John Tenniel's illustrations}, hentai, Trivial Pursuit, computers, taking naps whenever possible, Pierre et Gilles, Nikon photo equipment...

I'd like to meet:


I'm open to meeting new people and making new friends. If we have mutual friends, similar interests, or there is some common thread that connects us, feel free to say hello.On the other hand:

*Do not send me messages which include photos of yourself jerking off. Your dick won't impress me if your brain doesn't.

*If you think that sending me a message like the one below will actually result in a reply from me, then don't waste your time:

I do not hook up with, have sex with, or get fucked up with strangers from the internet. I hate sounding like a diva-bitch-goddess from Hell, but I'm tired of wasting my time deleting junk from my inbox.

Music:

It's impossible to remember every good band / musician that I love and type it up here.

I like everything from The Cure to Cab Calloway to Icon of Coil to Social Distortion to Leonard Cohen. I grew up with a mother who loves Jaques Brel and Kurt Weill, and a father who is a fan of T-Rex and David Bowie. I'm just as likely to break out a Zoë Keating CD of cello music as a cheesy New Wave song from the 80's.

You don't really expect me to list every musician I listen to, do you?

Movies:

The list got out of hand; here is this week's / month's / ? random selection:

The Life Aquatic, Wings of Desire, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Secretary, Memento

Television:

Somewhere along the way I became lazy and started watching TV again. Mostly The History Channel, Comedy Central, and Cartoon Network {thumbs up to Ghost in Shell SAC and Naruto; thumbs down to Scooby-Poo, I mean Doo.}

Books:

Authors I'll read anything by: Francesca Lia Block, Neil Gaiman

A Few Random Good Books: 'Fingerprints of The Gods' by Graham Hancock, 'Wraeththu' by Storm Constantine, 'The Singularity' by Ray Kurzweil {yes, the same guy who makes the keyboards}, 'The Holographic Universe' by Michael Talbot

Heroes:

Just because they seem to
Understand the way you feel
It just doesn't mean that
They'll feel the same way too
Just because they seem to
Hold a mirror to your life
It just doesn't follow that
They'll be just like you
Take no heroes, It's no good
They don't stand up to you
Just take the bits you think
That you can use


My Blog

P.S.

I also wanted to say that I'm sorry for all of the people who've sent me messages, e-mails, etc. that have gone unanswered.  I wasn't kidding when I said that I unplugged my computer.  ...
