ABOUT ME

Dark chocolate living in a milk chocolate world.

Personal mantra: "I don't know."

Favorite things: dark and light, silence and noise, conversation, walking, stargazing, presence, adventures, navel gazing, Fall, beauty, connection, intimacy, honesty, simplicity, emptiness.

I b.y.o.b., r.s.v.p, and always wash up after myself. Looking forward to finding a temporary home for a night or two with some lovely poeple during my upcoming adventures.

PHILOSOPHY

"You cannot kill me! You can only kill my body. And the body is but a garment I have worn. I am not the body. I am that which dwells within the body!"

Интересы

Writing and recording music has kept me busy for the better part of ten years. I've been in a few bands, but mostly flown solo with help from central processing units. Over the years, I've dabbled in other artsy pursuits like photography, modeling, fashion, glass blowing, graphic art, web design, and poetry. Macrobiotic cooking is one of my latest hobbies; my recipes reflect a growing interest in things "green." In 2010, I started doing Hatha Yoga, and with a five days/week practice, am on the path to becoming a Yogi. Computers are the tools of my trade; I currently own four "boxes" (two of them homemade) that assist me with my small business creating and marketing pre-recorded sounds for music production. As an English major, books and literature are also a piece of my puzzle. Last but not least, I've watched far too many movies to count or recall, so I'm also a known cinephile (A person with a passionate interest in cinema). So to sum up, you might say that I'm a musician/artist/poet/chef/consumer-activist/Yogi/bookish, movie aficiando techie, or in other words, a pretty interested guy.
