Chaos Illumination have a wide range of interests. Between us we have a wide and varied interests but they mainly coincide with music.
Marie's Interests - Books, Music, Computers - gaming and lightshow stuff. Dressing up and going out. Shopping - particularly for boots, bags and clothes.
Neil's interests - Electronics. Video projection/lightshows. Excessive strobe lighting. Dangerous lasers. Albert Hoffmans offspring. Land Rovers. Old arcade games.
John - interested in most things concerned with the bike and rock music worlds glad they go hand in hand , it'd be a sad world if the only places to go only played disco. Interested in people who want to be interested in me, not interested in people who just want to use people without giving anything back.
I'd like to meet:
We'd like to meet lots of people. Anyone with a genuine interest in lightshows and VJing.
Marie would like to meet. Lots of people I could probably put down here but here are a few that instantly spring to mind - Bob Calvert - died before I got into HW, Liquid Len and any of the Lensmen,any ex Hawkwind bod I've yet to meet J.R.R. Tolkien, Rammstein, David Bowie, Orlando Bloom (cos he looks good in Pirates), Johnny Depp(ditto) or any band / club night / person with a cool sound and an interest in what we do.
Neil would like to meet - Dave Brock (think you may have done that one already Neil).
John - love to meet a rich widow.
Chaos Illumination is not interested in getting the highest number of "friends" on myspace - We will only add bands that we have worked with, know or like the music of. We will only add people who we know, cool people, people we admire for whatever reason.
Peace - Marie (Chaos Illumination)
You have been marked on my profile map!
Music:
Chaos Illumination on Music. Marie likes - Hawkwind for very obvious reasons, most Metal / Punk from 60's through to now. Particularly like bands such as Rammstein - great lightshows, Stoner Rock such as QOTSA, Monster Magnet. Sixties / Seventies psychedelic bands such as 13th Floor Elevators, Love etc. Folk Rock such as Levellers, Tarantism, Skyclad but will usually listen to anything at least once.
Neil Likes - Hawkwind (of course!), Rammstein, Voivod, Pink Floyd, Slayer, Spacehead, Motorhead, Black Sabbath, Marilyn Manson, Dead Kennedys, Monster Magnet.
John likes - music wise same as Marie and Neil really, first ever live gig was Motorhead in '79 at Sheffield City Hall and my hearing's never been the same since, never looked back from that day forward really.
Movies:
Chaos Illumination on Movies. Marie likes - Sc-Fi, Horror, Anime or Fantasy films. Rocky Horror Picture Show - my fav movie of all time - Tim Curry is a God, LOTR, Dark City, Blade Runner, anything from Studio Ghibli - you get the general idea.
Neil likes - Star Wars and no doubt lots of Sci-fi type stuff.
John likes - FILMS pretty much same as above - Sci-Fi, Horror and all that.
Television:
Chaos Illumination on TV. Marie likes - dark comedy, eg Chris Morris, League of Gentlemen, Black Books, Spaced, Extras, Kath n Kim etc. Also like loads of Sci Fi type stuff - eg Red Dwarf, Star Trek, Stargate, Twin Peaks, Lost, 24, Desperate Housewives etc.
Don't like - reality tv shows - get a life of your own people rather than watching someone else's sad existence.
Neil likes - what Marie makes him watch but mainly same as above.
..
John likes - We're all into the same kinda stuff really.
Books:
Chaos Illumination on Books. Do we all read books?? Dunno.
Marie reads - mainly fantasy and crime genres. Stuff like Greg Keyes, Tad Williams, Alan Campbell, China Mieville, Tolkien, Pratchett, Moorcock, Jeffrey Deaver, Ian Rankin, Peter Robinson, Stephen Booth, etc. Best book of all time - Lord of the Rings!! I like most fantasy writing and good character based crime, particular faves at the moment are Scandinavian crime writers. My shelves are groaning under the weight of a rather large selection of such stuff.
Neil reads - whatever I think he might like and be bothered to read.
John reads - read Pratchett, Moorcock's a fave read, alot of steven king when I was younger. All the Tolkien books and various Haynes workshop manuals over the years. Douglas Adams of course.
Heroes:
Chaos Illumination on Heroes. Marie's heroes are people who strive to do good, to help those who can't help themselves for what ever reason and to try and make the world a better place, no matter how small or big that difference may be.
Maries Anti-Hero's - people who blag either about doing stuff they haven't done, taking credit for other people's work or using another's name to get stuff they shouldn't have. Blaggers - hate 'em. People who think violence is the only solution - why?? I'm no hippy but come on guys. Don't do it - it's not right.
Neil's Heroes - ??
John's Heroes - well its got to be my mum first and foremost, people who fight for freedom. Everyone involved with MAG UK keep up the good work. People who see the big picture, not the ones who swallow the media hype and lastly Lord Chesterfield for this Quote ;- "Pray let no quibbles of lawyers, no refinments of Casuists, break into the plain notions of right and wrong, which every man's right reason and plain common-sense suggests to him. To do as you would be done by, is the plain, sure and undisputed rule of morality and justice. stick to that."
Lastly the biggests heros in my life, every rock musician out there and especially the ones whom I've dedicated a fair bit of time to recently.
John's Antihero's - Anti heros well i think its all ready been said scum they will crash and burn one day ''beware the ides of march''.
