Film making/watching, painting, sculpture, martial arts practice and instruction especially judo and jujitsu. I would also love to travel more in the future. I would like to read more Spanish and someday learn Catalan, which is a language that my Father and Grandmother speak. Talking about behavior (among other things) with my little sister "La Reyna" and talking to my fraternal twin brother about all sorts of weirdness.
Music
My tastes are too varied to mention. I listen to a selection that ranges from progressive metal to classical/symphonic, to alternative, punk, classic rock, experimental, new age (just a little), world music, folk music, and the list goes on!
Movies
I love nearly all types of movies in all genres except musicals. I do love some musicals, but on the whole I think that they work better on the stage. Some of my favorite movies are Fargo, Hunt for Red October, Re-Animator, Evil Deads, Manhunter, Jaws, The Incredibles, My Cousin Vinny, The Thing (1982), Usual Suspects, The Fugitive, Amadeus, Name of the Rose, Orlando, Galaxy Quest, Misery, Dr Strangelove, Harold and Maude, Rocky Horror Picture Show. Excorcist, Shine, Bad Taste, Delicatessen, City of Lost Children and the list goes on!
Television
I don't watch television at the moment, but when I did I really enjoyed Northern exposure, Cheers, Star Trek, Mythbusters, and any nature show with insects. The list goes on here as well.
Books
Yikes! So many! Okay, a small sample: An Anthropologist on Mars, Awakenings, (pretty much all Oliver Sacks works), Day of the Dead. Crussi, Notes of an Anatomist. Crussi, The Five Senses. Crussi, Suspended Animation. Crussi, (Okay, everything by Frank Gonzales Crussi). Crussi has written a number of books of essays that are wonderful! Back to the list: Warmth Disperses and Time passes. Hans Christian von Baeyer, Brainscapes. Restak, The Gift of Fear. Gavin de Becker and finally The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks. (ya never know!)
About me: Born in Canada from Spanish/Argentinean parents. I only spent the first four years of my life there, so I consider myself a Californian. Essentially I'm a painter, having trained in traditional oil painting since age nine. I am a filmmaker and love the creative aspects of movie making. I approach film work as a painter but I also love to write screenplay. My other love is the marital arts. I hope I'm not fanatical or overbearing about it, but when I was a child I was small and weird so I quickly learned an appreciation for self defense. I'm still weird but that's not a terrible thing in the entertainment bussiness. I still practice when given the chance. I am a graduate of a film school and I have a few years in art school as well. Most of my time is spent trying to push my film projects forward, however I would like to get back to oil painting and performance art. I am bilingual and would love to make some films in Spain. Although I do need to practice my Spanish. I have two awesome siblings who live very far away.
Hmmm...
That's it for now.
More later

Who I'd like to meet: I would love to meet other fearless artists, actors, dancers, and musicians. I would also love to meet scientists, philosophers, researchers and teachers. Fearless people who love to think and act. (Not just dramatic acting, but to take action.)
