All I can do is be me, whoever that is (c) Bob Dylan

ABOUT ME

Born in Russia in the middle of knowhere, I was raised in South England, where I studied English Literature, Drama, French and History of Art. Now I am living in NYC, where I attend a Film School.

"I left New York in 1949
To go across the country without a bad blame dime
Montana in the cold cold fall
Found my father in the gambling hall

Father, Father where you been?
I've been out in the world and I'm only ten
Father, Father where you been?
I've been out in the world and I'm only ten

Don't worry about me if I should die of pleurisy

Across to Mississippi, across to Tennessee
Across the Niagara, home I'll never be
Home in ol' Medora, home in Ol' Truckee
Apalachicola, home I'll never be

Better or for worse, thick and thin
Like being married to the Little poor man
God he loves me (God he loves me)
Just like I love him (just like I love him)
I want you to do (I want you to do)
Just the same for him (just the same for him, yeah)

Well the worms eat away but don't worry watch the wind
So I left Monatana on an old freight train (on an old freight train)
The night my father died in the cold cold rain (in the cold cold rain)"

Jack Kerouac, "On The Road'"

PHILOSOPHY

“I believe in a long, prolonged, derangement of the senses in order to obtain the unknown.”
Jim Morrison
