Bio:

I've been around for as long as I can remember, shopping with the girls, feeling left out, reading the news paper, etc. I am noise. The anima, feminine side project of your least favorite artist. Probably don;t even know him myself. Who cares? Does it matter? Do I matter? Do I mind? Hell no. I'll stop when I reach menopause. .. .. here is some of my albums, they can mostly be downloaded in the blog on this page, or from the respective net-labels they were released on.

This is no band, and there are no members. There is one man, expressing through noise his opinions, views, femininity, inner child, inner beast, light and darkness, and never one over the over. I am a solitary practitioner of cyber magick and necronoismancing. Experimental by nature and a surrealist by heart, born in the mountains of eastern kentucky where satanism and heavy metal ran rampant. drug to western ky before puberty, introduced to skateboarding alternative subculture before it was cool, poet, writer, dreamer, artist, collagist, noise artist, musician, druggie, freak, weirdo, creative genius of my day and age. humble and modest I am not. A self obsessed egomaniacle dousche with a superiority complex I am not either. I was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and was deemed to crazy to work in public so I retired at age 27 and moved back to the mountains to raise my children and evolve into what I was intended to be. After a while of dabbling in electronic music, IE, breakbeats, IDM, techno, trance, ambient, dubstep, house, trip hop, etc. I realized after creating about 10 to 15 albums under the moniker frater hater that music no longer appealed to me. As an artist all my life drawing with ink pens when I went crazy as they say, I threw away all of my art. everything I had created since i was 15 years old. It took me all night. I lost interest in drawing. I sometimes want to paint, but not often enough. The only artforms that mean anything to me are noise and collage, and mixed media video collage art. No other art has any meaning to me anymore. As an artist who can draw anything in any style and a musician who can play any instrument in any style of music. I only have an interest in art forms that are patchworked from various previously existing items, pictures, sounds, images, videos, etc. Like the cut up technique created by Tristan Tzara and later refined by Burroughs and Brion Gyson, that is what my life is like, that is my personality and character. My tattoo's are collaged over my skin, my mind and thoughts are collaged together from everything going on and that has gone on around me since I was born. It's the only artform that means anything to me. Personal expression as a means of self reflection using art supplies is for college kids who are still trying to find themselves. SO I say, fuck the art community, fuck the pretentious fags and assholes who know everything and look down their long crooked noses at any art form that they think doesn't involve talent and skill. Collage is not appreciated, Noise is not appreciated, just like abstract art, they say, anyone can do it and it is a result of laziness and a lack of creativity, when the truth is, it's the only type of art that breaks free from the boring selfishness of drawing, painting, sculpting, your feelings, your emotions on canvas, portraying the essence of thoughts and opinions, the overtly human artsy fartsy bullshit, is not present in these mixed media artforms. That is the beauty, with these art forms we can evolve and create universes outside of our limitations and the limitations of our meager senses and emotions which stunt our growth in many ways. What I am getting at is, to me there is only selfishness involved in all artfomrs besides mixed media projects. I am nosie, and I am a conglomerate of all things that have ever been. As the late William Burroughs once said, "I got more images than any hipster poet ever shit out."
