About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Music, dancing, drinking and eating well,low budget travelling far and wide without aeroplanes, gold chains, couture, discos in my bedroom, charity shops, sunglasses at night, silver shorts, urban planning, public spaces, performance, trains, recordings, presentations, learning and teaching, peer reviewing, use and abuse of cliche, and its avoidance, new and old buildings of surprising appearance, beautiful boys and girls, spontaneous leaps from macro to micro, THE FUTURE AND NOW! knowing why i like these things.

PHILOSOPHY

I hope it has been somewhat elucidated by my previous answers??
Integrity and knowledge

Interests

Everything and all its facets (but if you REALLY need more information than that you might take sound and its effects and contexts, in the form of music or not, food and how to use it as a drug and a medicine and a meditiation and a delicious thing in my mouth, looking at the shape of the environment around me whether in a city of on top of a mountain and feeling in awe. These were a couple of examples!)
