“We have no Democratic Party. It’s financed by the same millionaires and billionaires as the Republicans." --Kurt Vonnegut
My only professional televison credit-"Autoguard 2000". This was done about 15 years ago. I did some animation and cel painting on this one. It was created by Peter Lauer & my friend Brian Cirulnick for the MTV show called "Liquid Television." There were several sequences done, but this was the only one that made it to air. I'm shaking my head that this old chestnut is floating around in cyberspace. Scary!
The David Vector single "Go", from the album of the same name.
Music Video of the Rush instrumental "YYZ", from their CD, "Moving Pictures". The animation is by Bobby Standridge.
Harlan Ellison-Pay The Writer...From the Ellison documentary "Dreams With Sharp Teeth". WARNING: Strong Language.
Waltz With Bashir-Trailer. This is an animated film by and about Israeli director Ari Folman as a traumatized veteran trying to recover his memories of the first Lebanon War. This film earned a Golden Globe for best foreign language film. It also won an Ophir Award, Israel’s equivalent of the Academy Awards, for best film.
Rush-Beastie Boys Mash-Up, using the Rush tune Tom Sawyer. I thought this was BRILLIANT.
Official music video for the Rush song "Show Don't Tell", off their 1989 album, "Presto."

(novella) Ramon Veldez's life is turned upside down one night on the streets of a tough Jersey City neighborhood. His fate lies in the hands of a stranger who could ultimately be his savior-or his destruction.
(novelette) What are people willing to do in the name of religion? At what cost? What motivates them? Power or faith? The people in this tale are driven to commit horrific acts in the name of religion, with unexpected results. This story was inspired by the author's experiences on September 11, 2001.
