| General | I am passionate about art and music. I play original piano compositions. I am also an electronic composer of sorts. Possible other interests include writing poetry and philosophy—things of that nature. Furthermore, some more so than others, I take interest in a versatile variety of literature, music of nearly all kinds, film, animation, Anime, video games, comics, graphic novels, collecting what essentially influences and inspires—absorbed. My blogs will contain links that go beyond this exhibition.
