About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to see as much of this rock as i can... without spending too much money

ABOUT ME

i like art. and i'm preferring pencils to pens at the moment. i'm a quiet observer with no money who really likes computers and movies.

in my stable life i'm a filmmaker, improvisor, and whatever brings in the bread.

PHILOSOPHY

i live in one of a thousand cities, in one of fifty states, in one of 195 countries, on one of eight planets, in one of a million solar systems, in one of a billion galaxies... it's be a shame to not try and see everything i can.
