    Jonny Cota's Interests
General

reclaiming vulnerability (my greatest venture yet)... sunrises, new moons, theatre of the absurd, stilt walking, circus arts, cooking for lovers, alexander mcqueen, eye contact, body modification, ritualistic piercing and scarification, reconstructing and designing clothing, boys with big lips. gender fucking, tapatio, jasmine tea, dark black coffee, snake skin boots, iambic pentameter, alliteration and syntax, drinking mojitos in the shower, chewing on ginger root until my face feels like it's going to fall off, 3-day stubble, roadrash, independent media, gayshamesf.org, creative resistance, grungy-sexy-breakbeats, hip hop, glitch hop, turntablism, throbbing, soul-pounding bass, bloody maries in the morning, and madness... sheer madness. ... oh yeah, and amazing sex... of course.
no, actually no, I hate amazing sex.

MusicEverything from classical to hardcore, intelligent electronic to balkan gypsy music, hoochy-mama hip-hp to gregorian chants...

breakbeats, glitchy IDM, bass-heavy freak hop... conscious and unconscious hip hop for completely different reasons

CocoRosie, Antony and the Johnsons, Beirut, Telefon Tel Aviv, Billie Holiday, Scott Matthew, Nine Inch Nails, Andrew Bird, sigur ros, Glassjaw
Moviesshort bus!!!, stonewall, paris is burning, big fish, strictly ballroom, dirty dancing, showgirls, sister act 1 and 2 (no joke)... i have a thing for bad movies.
BooksThe Bible, the Torah, the Quran, and the scrapbook of my life's mistakes
Heroesallen ginsberg (only when he's talking dirty), david bowie (only when he's high on copious amounts of cocain and drowning in fake eyelashes), kurt vonnegut (impressively crazier with every sentence written), tom robbins (only when he's drunk... which is most likely all the time), molly ivans (if you don;t know her work... seek her out! she is the most witty, intelligent, progressive journalist in america and she spends most of her time poking the bush administration with a sharp literary stick), 2pac (post-gun shot)...

About me:
I like to sew.

When I sew things together, I call it Skin.Graft.Designs.

I am an animal rights activist turned leather jacket designer.... queer huh? I honor both these extremes in myself, value balance and respect many different sides of truth.
I am a Jack of many trades. Currently I invest my creative energy into performing, stilting, circus arts, DJing and couture creations.

I spend most of my days creating tangible art out of seemingly-passable ideas. I create everything that you see in these photos... from the headresses and costumes to the performances and clothing.

I am fully intoxicated by art and love. I'm a hopeless romantic and look for beauty in even the darkest corners of our beings and our worlds.

Who I'd like to meet:
Trouble makers, unicorn tamers and ferret breeders
