Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Too many! I love reading both fiction and non-fiction. Some favorites; The Selfish Gene, The User Illusion, Empire of Illusion, The Tipping Point, The Extended Phenotype, Guns Germs and Steel, Collapse, Day of Empire, World on Fire, Blink, Naked Economics, Papillon, The Damage Done, Phantoms in the Brain, Vengeance, A History of God, Life of Pi, Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, 1984

Movies; Pretty big into documentaries; Food Inc., Blue Gold, Zeitgeist, RIP - A remixers manifesto. Also, the Matrix and Star Wars are classics.

Music: I have very diverse musical interests. Indie rock/pop and funk (for chilling out and live shows), house and trance (for dancing), happy hardcore (for running – this is a really obscure, cheesy techno genre - don't judge). World music/fusion, and some top40.
