Bombing On Subway Trains Over Night (or something)

1991. Ill Mob Of Krooks. With SA, STAY, TARGET and SEMY, I believe. This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever painted. You can't really see it, but there's all this splatter and silver in the fill. I was out of control. I blame the drugs.

I don't remember painting this:

I did four characters here while target, aves, nero and rath did their thing:

I love drawing/painting Swamp Thing:

Speaking of old check out this video (someone who may or may not be me show up towards the end, doing a little damage with SA):

Get this video and more at MySpace.com

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Zatoichi. Spike Spiegel. Haruhi Suzumiya.Eliza la comtesse de la Zeur. Lust.

Seriously? Artists. People who throw around bags of money for art. That sort of thing.

Music:

Everything? Seriously. I've been keeping a page going at last.fm for the past few months, so that's as good an answer as anything. Although if I haven't listened to it on a computer in the past few months, it's not going to be represented (that includes many people I really like). Here's the handy last.fm chart...

Movies:

I'm going to put my netflix rental activity up on my site soon. 'til then, think: Hong Kong and Japan with a healthy dose of everything else from everywhere filling in the margins.

Of course, you can always take a look at what I reviewed when I wrote about film

Okay. I'll say one thing. For me, City of God is the best movie of the decade so far.

Television:

[adult swim], X-Play, Law and Order [CI,SVU], CSI, other TLC/PBS/DSC randomness.

A Clash of Kings (A Song of Ice and Fire, Book 2)
A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire, Book 1)
In Cold Blood
Anansi Boys : A Novel
Zodiac
The Brothers Karamazov
