I'm a video and motion designer. That means I make videos, motion graphics, and other designy type things.

Sometimes I chase crows.

Once I had an albatross fall on my head, which surprised both of us.

I like coffee... a lot.

After pissing around with an interest for years, I've finally decided to take rock climbing seriously...ier.

Jules Verne makes for a good read, but so do Calvin and Hobbes comics.

Me and penguins get along pretty well. The ones in the wild at least. I also really like whales.

These self summaries are lame. Sorry if I sound vague, but I think there are more interesting things to talk about than what my favourite bands are or if I think owls taste better than pronouns (which they do). And at risk of reducing the amount of people who write back to me from 4% to 1%... saying you "sometimes like to go out, but sometimes like to stay in" is pretty much the most useless thing you can say about yourself. I'm looking at you, 70% of the people on here.

Come on, its okcupid. Can't we laugh a little?

Here's a list of tags to give me that extra 1% completion:

creative
dinosaurs
art
street art
photo
robot
film

spock
rock climbing

Also, there was a time when I used to study physics. Which I still find fascinating. So there's that.

Bottom line. I just like creating fun stuff and being with fun people. Here's my blog if you want to see some things I create: www.avocadoslum.com

Working at it. I'm always trying to learn new media, be it traditional, digital, or a hybrid of the two. I just like making stuff, and if that helps me pay off the massive amount of student loans I amassed to get where I am today, then all the better.

...Blinking with BOTH eyes.

...Maintaining proper file name structure for media projects.

...Finishing my tweets with a period (.). It may cost me a character, but its totally worth it (also this is a joke).

...Driving rocketships?

This section is dumb. But evidently it's important:

Movies:
- The Science of Sleep
- Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
- Hackers
- Gattaca
- The Fountain
- Cloud Atlas

...and about 200 more.

TV:
- Futurama
- The X-Files
- Star Trek (the Shatner years!)

... and about 4 others.

Also I still watch 90's era Nickelodeon, and LOVE The Adventures of Pete and Pete, Are you Afraid of the Dark, Doug, Clarissa explains it all, Rockos Modern Life, Hey Dude, Salute Your shorts, and more.

Music and food? Well, we can cover that later.

T-rex...

T-rex counts for all six.

what time it is.

Attempting to build a private rocket ship. I hear Saturn is fun this time of year, and my Frequent Flyer Mile program doesnt include inter-stellar travel. So its up to me.

This isn't really private at all, but I hate facebook, and don't have one. I'm not some anti-tech snob by any means, but I find facebook absolutely absurd. Now sealions on the other hand... sealions rule.

You know where I can get cheap Rx drugs, russian brides, male enhancement pills, or you have a webcam (and you want me to see you having fun with your friends). Anything I miss?

edit: ok, seriously, this was a joke... as in my spam folders in my email are filled with this crap. No, I'm not looking for drugs, and no, I'm not so perverted that I'm soliciting web cams on okcupid. But those male enhancements and Russian brides... please keep them coming.
