Jordan C Brun Actor/Artist/Teacher's Interests
|
| General | Freelance art, acting (improvisational, meisner, and method utilized in stage, film, video, and television), teaching, martial arts, hiking, swimming, camping, writing, intelligent conversation, politics, various multi-deity religons, poetry, roleplaying (tabletop and LARping), and reading pretty much anything I can get my hands on. | | Music | An ecclectic mix. Ian Anderson/Jethro Tull, Modest Mouse, Led Zepplin, Theory of a Deadman, Classic Motown, Oingo Boingo/Danny Elfman, Beatles, Doors, Stones, Fleetwood Mac, TMBG, David Bowie, Rush, Parliment Funkadelic, Oliver Mtukudzu, Deep Purple, Tool, Janis Joplin, Folk Protest songs of the ’60’s, Blackmore’s Night, Frank Sinatra, Pre-Stunt BNL, Chris Schaffer, and quite a few others... | | Movies | Horror and "B" movies top my personal viewing list. I've been well-known for liking movies no one else will watch. I am also known as the "Keeper of the Throne of Fire"... I am a fan of all film, however, and like to find the value in all kinds of premises and directors. Films (Both Short and Feature-length) I've been/am currently shooting include: "Wonderful", "Satori", "The Carefree Ranch", "Divided", "Body Bag", "InZer0: Fragile Wings", "The Cart", "Word of the Day" & "Late at Theo's". You can grab my resume upon request - just message me with your email. | | Books | Fiction: I like long sagas (and comics...) that have a steadfast end and something to say. Among these are: Stephen King's DARK TOWER Series, H.P. Lovecraft's CTHULHU MYTHOS and other short stories, Most anything by Theodore Geisel (Dr. Seuss's Lorax!), THE SANDMAN By Neil Gaiman and others, Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon's PREACHER, CEREBUS by Dave Sim, ELFQUEST by Wendy and Richard Pini, Brian Jaques' REDWALL, Kentaro Miura's BERSERK, Katsuhiro Otomo's AKIRA, GUNNM (Battle Angel Alita) by Yukito Kishiro, MAGE (both series) by Matt Wagner, DUNE by Frank Herbert, Art Spiegelman's MAUS, Aldous Huxley's BRAVE NEW WORLD, pretty much anything by Michael Crichton, and George Orwell's ANIMAL FARM and 1984.
As for Non-Fiction, I devour anything considering the connectiveness of education and brain-based learning, among these: TEACHING WITH THE BRAIN IN MIND and ARTS WITH THE BRAIN IN MIND by Eric Jensen, DRAWING ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE BRAIN by Dr. Betty Edwards, the FLOW PSYCHOLOGY books of Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, the many books of Improvisation (most among these being IMPROVISATION FOR THE THEATER by Viola Spolin and TRUTH IN COMEDY by Del Close, Charna Halpern, and Kim "Howard" Johnson). Love the poetry of David Wojahn, particularly the MYSTERY TRAIN series. I read a few health manuals, foremost among these being BODY FOR LIFE by Bill Phillips | | Heroes | Personally, I think this term is terribly overused. I believe that family members, teachers, and those that protect us should be our truest heroes, for they are the ones that most effect our lives.
I could ramble on, but here's a list of people (alive or dead) who I would like to meet, in no particular order: Albrecht Durer, Danny Elfman, Ian McKellan, Lao-Tzu, Bill Hicks, Nikola Tesla, Del Close, George Clinton, Ian Anderson, Heirmonious Bosch, Bruce Campbell, Thomas Edison, Michaelangelo Buonotti, Abraham Lincoln, Bruce and Brandon Lee, Moses, Tim Burton, George Carlin, Henri Toulouse-Latrec, Jack Nicholson, Boris Karloff, Ghandi, Lon Chaney, Alfred Hitchcock, Tod Browning, K'ung Fu-tse (Confucious), Paul Newmann, Eric Jensen, Mel Blanc, Alexander Graham Bell, Jim Morrison, H.P. Lovecraft, Buddha, Edgar Allen Poe, David Wojahn, Viola Spolin, Benjamin Franklin, Stephen King, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Sam Raimi, Jesus Christ, Michael Crichton, Penn and Teller, Neil Gaiman, Gary Gygax, Mohammed, Leonardo Da Vinci, Alan Moore, Kevin Smith, all of the Marx Brothers (Particularly Groucho), and more than a few others... |
