artsy andventurer, endlessly learning, always optimistic, eternally child-like in wonder of it all. a romantic, explorer, absurdist, and idealist at heart.

living in the moment, creating art and music, having fun, making everything i work towards seem like playtime ('cause it is)

i have a degree in fashion design, was going to school for record production - but stopped to make music in real life and concentrate on other projects, started p90x this year and it's kicking my ass

currently, having a fair amount of foresight, re-branding myself, working on a new sportswear line, live shows, and my first mixtape

listening, being a good friend, offering any wisdom that may seep out, making people laugh, being creative - always have too many ideas, seeing connections between things that may not be readily apparent ... and stuff

my "familiar" look, my deep voice, my (dark/strange) sense of humor and big laugh that seems to come from nowhere. i guess maybe i dress a bit odd at times and i look young

the patchwork girl of oz, the tower of alchemy, the lord of the rings... mostly non-fiction books on mysticism and scientific stuff about quantum theories, reality, the universe, our minds. heavily influenced by dr. suess and richard scarry. i love rumi and e.e cummings poetry. science-ficton. the internet has basically fucked my attention span though

movies - not a film buff but enjoy most "art-house" type stuff, science-fiction and anime (david lynch and hayo miyazake are my favorites). i like texture and i like to be stimulated (this goes for anything)

favorites are

mullholand drive, a.i. (artificial inteligence) ,the lord of the rings, brazil, princess mononoke, enter the void, the fountain, dark city, ghost in the shell, solaris, alice in wonderland (original), naked lunch, pinocchio, evangelion 2.0, metropolis (anime), spirited away, blade runner, pi, contact, event horizon, the mothman prophecies, eraserhead, resident evil: extinction, moon

shows
don't watch much tv, mostly into anime (and educational stuff about the universe and animals). my favorites are - neon genesis evangelion, the walking dead, 30 rock, sailor moon, ghost in the shell - stand alone complex, spawn, beast wars, ancient aliens, and i don't know whatthefuck is wrong with me but i'm strangely addicted to real housewives of atlanta

music
bjork, burial, aphex twin, arvo part, autechre, gatekeeper, zomby, kate bush, fatima al qadiri, squarepusher, james ferarro, purity ring, grimes, ellen allien, patten, pariah, lil b, azealia banks, jeremiah jae, salem, evian christ, oneohtrix point never, kendrick lamar, teengirl fantasy, henryk gorecki, flying lotus, john maus, vessel, dj earl, boards of canada, clams casino, spaceghostpurrp, jam city, frank ocean

mostly into things with beats or electronic atmospheres.
post-dubstep, idm, hip-hop and everything in between. i also love classical music - choral, piano, strings - i like the slow building, melancholic stuff, think holy minimalism

food
i love just about all asian cuisines
i could eat salmon sashimi for the rest of my life
although i do love a good death-burger
i can have eggs and bacon any time of the day

games
sonic the hedgehog, final fantasy x, pokemon silver, klonoa: door to phantomile, ghouls and ghosts, mortal kombat, x-men, crash bandicoot, dark stalkers, super mario world, clayfighter, fatal fury, the kind of fighters, marvel vs capcom, sonic 2, sonic spinball, street fighter alpha

the internet
my hands
good music
good foood
stimulating thoughts/sounds/visuals
laughter

the true nature of being, subverting reality, the universe and other dimensions, darkness, visualizing music, writing beats, mystical principles, current and future artistic projects, abstract concepts, random funny shit that makes me burst out into laughter spontaneously throughout the day

crashing through screen doors, making music, walking upside down on the ceiling, dancing (if i'm lucky), creating characters and hilarious scenarios, and myriad fun things ...most likely though, i am at home working on something with my hands or riding my bike at night

although i can seem aloof and oblivious at times
i like to think i'm pretty perceptive

i feel i get more and more eccentric, the older i get :P
(i now type in all lowercase. although i handwrite in all caps. i'm also in love with using hyphens in place of commas, here and there and have skipped using periods at the end of final sentences... it streamlines things/i like it for aesthetic reasons)

i also suck at math

i have two types of synaesthesia: sound-color synesthesia and Number form synesthesia

i don't drive and don't know how and don't intend on learning. that seems to be pretty important to some people

you are passionate, open-minded, creative, into music on a deeper level, with a good sense of humor
