Music, Movies, and Books

My music taste ranges from contemporary classical to post-punk/hardcore to ambient/drone. But I can get down w certain pop and country when the mood strikes (and it will)

I am partial to the films of great auteurs like Kubrick, PT Anderson, Fellini, Bergman, etc. as well as those of documentarians like Herzog, Errol Morris, Alex Gibney. I promise I am no snob though and can get into even the fluffiest popcorn munchers.

Book-wise i tend to gravitate toward non-fiction, primarily history and politics. I also have a soft spot for sci-fi on the order of PKD, Gibson, Lem, etc.
