Writing fiction, tennis, golf, yoga, chess, literature, traveling and making short movies. Oh yeah, and absorbing the Zeitgeist.
Music
I listen to EVERYTHING--Really!
Movies
City of God, Fight Club, Chasing Amy, Breaking the Waves or any other movie by Lars von Trier, Dr. Strangelove (Kubrick is classic), Any Movie by Almodovar, Good Fellas, Clerks, Citizen Kane, Better Off Dead, Terminator 1+2, Pulp Fiction, Shawshank Redemption, The Big Lebowski, Train Spotting, Snatch, Rain Man
Television
Starved, South Park, Da Ali G, Seinfeld, Nip Tuck, Arrested Development....
I must confess, however, that at the moment I don't have a TV!
It's odd to think of all the time I used to spend watching TV, and yet why is it that I don't seem to have more time now that I'm without it?
Life is weird, period.
Books
Glamorama, Still Life With Woodpecker, Ender's Game, About a Boy, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, Asleep, Kafka's short stories...
Heroes
Preston Sturges was a renaissance man and an amazing filmmaker (Sullivan's Travels from 1941 is a must see), and his mom was really good friends with Isadora Duncan whom he helped stage productions for as a boy; here's a sweet quote by Isadora :"All my life I have struggled to make one authentic gesture." Beautifully minimalist--in a Zen type of way, eh?
About me: A quintiessential Deleuzean “body without organs” with a machinic desire to transduce cocoa beans into a pleasure intensity--with a non-normative value of 2.714
Hey fella, great to meet you the other night! There just aren't enough conversations that span film direction, marathon abortions, 3d photography and erotic etchings! lol. cheers, Alex
So... taking over the world with Art, eh?! :-) Well if I weren't a million miles away, I would visit the gallery... I hope everything is going well! :-)
