Music, Movies, and Books

Being an engineer, I enjoy Science Fiction and works with a slice of surrealism.

Books include:
The Road (Cormac McCarthy),
Year of the Flood (Margaret Atwood),
Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World (Haruki Murakami)
Song of Ice and Fire (GRRM)
Dune (Frank Herbert)

Movies:
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind,
Yiyi, a one and a two,
Tokyo Sonata,
Sunshine,
Let the Right One In

I don't really have a favorite genre but just Music that hits the spot:
Lykke Li, Bon Jovi, Eason Chan, Five for Fighting, Arcade Fire, Tracy Chapman, Katie Melua, Bob Dylan, Sigur Ros, David Tao.... to name a few.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to discuss/teach anyone about engineering and design, help with realizing crazy science experiments.
