Music, Movies, and Books

I have an eclectic taste in music, but at heart I'm a rock guy. I grew up on the popular 90's music and classic rock. Then suddenly, I moved to exclusively classical music for a year. I incorporated folk rock into my portfolio thereafter. Since then, I have branched out to all genres. 90's pop rock and the jumpy jam stuff makes me dance.

I enjoy indie rock, arabesque, ambient music, folk music, ballads, and classical music, especially Rachmininov and Bruckner.

Books all the books. I sit among mounds of them: literature, poetry, philosophy. anything beautiful or difficult, fresh or time-honored, from the wildest-fictions to the principles of game theory or biology.
