ABOUT ME
I live with a bunch of skaters and make stupid video art usually about people moving through cities and want to use couch surfing as a means to explore different urban geography and people's habitual movements. I prefer work which I find funny and includes a small amount of failure.
I like spending all my money in one big splashout and then surviving on or below the breadline for rest of the month as both an urban and countryside forager.
I'm better at coming up with ideas than following them through but once I start a project it slowly trickles to an end. I like movies and documentaries and intend to pursue documentary as a career some day. In the mean time I have a good job in a cinema and like to hang out skateboarding. I also have a telescope to see things like stars moons planets, and far away galaxies.
PHILOSOPHY
I'm a committed atheist/humanist and i like that you can never win at skateboarding.
