Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To fill the meat grinder that is my brain with as much as possible and to see what I can make come out the other side.
ABOUT ME
Overall I'm a super chilled out human being, quiet, reserved and introverted, unless appropriately provoked. I am open minded and accepting, and I love anything that is different and creative. And I love mathematics and music. I'll maybe add some other stuff later (I procrastinate a lot).
PHILOSOPHY
Love and leave something behind.

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: I love all Stanley Kubrick's works, and also a big fan of anything Charlie Kaufman has done. I don't like anything I've seen before a million times.
Books: I need to read more first.
Music: Almost anything in the very generic genre of "electronic music" which is not dance music. Stuff like Squarepusher, Aphex Twin, Silkie, Amon Tobin, Autechre, Shpongle, Blockhead, Anders Ilar, Gui Borrato... there are many more, this is by no means an exhaustive or representative list. I also looooove the Beatles, Pink Floyd and Radiohead.
Comedy: I love "cringe comedy" and various forms modern dry humour, Curb Your Enthusiasm is my ultimate favourite show... also love all of Ricky Gervais and Steve Merchants shows, and anything Louis CK does. Great stand up guys are George Carlin and Eddie Izzard.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Seen the beautiful Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, and done the white water river rafting starting at the base of the falls and going down the Zambezi River... and absolutely exhilarating experience.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can help improve anybody's English... I can possibly help someone start to learn to play the guitar. I'm not super good, but good enough to teach you a few tricks. I am always open to sharing my philosophies and wisdoms I've picked up over the years with anyone!
