About Me

CURRENT MISSION

travel. mission in life. to gain experiences and knowledge

ABOUT ME

well, i always hate trying to sum myself in a paragraph.. but here goes. i like music. play piano, drums, guitar, and a little clarinet and flute. i enjoy reading non fiction and try to be in the middle of three books at a time. enjoy learning about anything, and mostly, talking to people about deep meaningful ideas and thoughts. god, religion, social activism, technology, and anything that is interesting. im a fun loving guy, dont take life to seriously, but know how to be serious when needed. im looking forward to meeting new people, (the ones ive met from cs so far have been amazingly cool and interesting. from all over the world.) but can also be low maintenance, with just a meter of floor under a ceiling. love living cheap!! hate materialism...

PHILOSOPHY

after much soul searching, (and knowing that this view of mine is going to change, as everything does and should) my current philosophy, is the golden rule, along with having fun and learning as much as i physically can about as many different fields i can cope with.

Interests

music (like i said). books next. physics, biology, chemistry, philosophy, metaphysics, languages, semantics, politics (not politicians... :) hang out with friends, meet new people and have interesting conversations. ive met a ton of people who i would love to keep intouch with, but they moved on and i stayed here. so i have come to accept those relationships where you have one night of amazing conversations and connections, and then you have to let go. a little sad in a way, but also, keeps things extremely fresh.. everything is new, and exiting for the first time.. its kinda cool. what an amazing age we live in... ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

im a composer (if you want to see all my unfinished work, heres a lind soundcloud.com/mzbs
blues, classical (back best) house, and electrojazz,
documentaries, stupid action comedys, for shutting off my brain before going to sleep. and movies that make you think, in the style of fightclub, trainspotting, and fear and loathing in las vegas.

as for books.. too many to list.. so ill pick the best most important book i have ever read\heard of...
science and sanity; an introduction to non-Aristotelian systems and general semantics

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

im not entirely sure... i cant really think of anything that ive done that has been amazing... its part of the reason i want to start traveling.. prob, the most amazing moment of my life so far.. came when i was reading a book on daoism (really?? the most amazing moment was reading a book...? wait, ill explain.. ) and suddnly, i perceived the whole world as one. all the birds outside were chirping in synchronicity with the wind, and my haertbeat, and the humming of electricity.. somehow, everything was connected... everything was one and flowing together. the feeling only lasted about 15 seconds.. but those fifteen seconds were and immense emotional expereince for such a short period of time... changed my life forever...

Teach, Learn, Share

well, i can teach music on a bunch of diffrent instruments.. also i know alittle electrical and diy knowledge..
but i guess my biggest skill is general knowledge, if you have an interesting subject, chances are we could have great cnversations about it.
