    Zak Claxton's Interests
GeneralMusic (both performance and recording), the Internet, other stuff.
MusicSo much to choose from... I love great songwriters (Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Lennon/McCartney), great bands (Who, Stones, Led Zeppelin, Police, Doors), and every genre from reggae to metal to pop to prog to classical to country and beyond.
TelevisionI've become one of those weird people who don't watch TV. However, in watching some shows along with my son, I absolutely enjoy the hell out of a Nickelodeon show called Avatar: The Last Airbender. I highly recommend it to people of all ages.
BooksRecent: Death by Black Hole by Neil deGrasse Tyson. If you have any interest in the origins and fate of Earth and the rest of the universe, this book explains the concepts of astrophysics in a fun way. No, really!

Greetings, Electronic Musician Readers!
I hope you enjoyed my article in the March issue of EM. For those of you who may have more questions about performing live music in Second Life, please feel free to message me here on MySpace. You are welcome to ask technical questions as well as make queries about Second Life in general. I am doing whatever I can to help support live music in SL, so your participation is welcomed and encouraged.

================================================

Zak Claxton is my Second Life alter ego. Both in Second Life as well as in my first one, I'm a songwriter, musician, audio engineer and producer. I am happily married to the smart and beautiful Kat Claxton. In my real life, I have a wonderful child who makes me laugh every day.

=======================================
A demo video for a demo song! "You're Like a Cloud" demo by Zak Claxton. Look for the real song later in 2008, on iTunes and other fine retailers.
