About me: Well, let's see...first - the basics: I consider myself an artist first (composer, photographer, bassist, set designer, graphic designer, painter, filmmaker) and a programmer second. Like many artists, I suspect, I spend more time on the day job than on the art. There was a time when that wasn't the case, but I was younger then and didn't mind being poor as much. These days I tend to be more...responsible (stuck)? However, more art is on the way. Stay tuned!
Who I'd like to meet: Laurie Anderson, to discuss perspectives on art and the world, and to see if we could work together on something; Vangelis, to find out what he envisions when he composes; Neil Peart and Rush, to say thanks; Peter Gabriel, to ask if we could collaborate on a project; Baz Lurhmann, to offer some worship; Hector Elizando, just to have a conversation - onscreen he seems to have so much humanity in him;
