ABOUT ME

Blah, blah, blah.

PHILOSOPHY

Rise like lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number!
Shake your chains to earth, like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you-
Ye are many, they are few!
-Percy Bysshe Shelley

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Practically anything by Jarmusch, old kung fu, Jodorowsky, especially Fando and Lis, anything Werner Herzog, Harmony Korine, Wem Wenders, David Lynch - artsy-fartsy shit like that. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention John Waters. Big fan of his.

Music: Cheesy lounge music, Captain Beefheart, East African music, Huayno, The Fall, The Raincoats. Been getting into the Modern Lovers lately.

Books: Currently reading Notes From the Underground by Dostoyevsky, and The Body Electric. I enjoy Haruki Murakami and Gunter Grass, in terms of fiction. Apart from that, I enjoy books of a philosophical, psychological, anthropological or historical nature. Soon to embark on Castaneda's Una realidad aparte, and Freud's Interpretation of Dreams.
