I'm a designer, writer and inventor. I have an extensive pallet of art, literary and music interests, but my essential nature is the unorthodox. I can't stand conformity, so my interests take a detour from the typical.

I've been working on choice stations for a while with Pandora. My "Pangalactic Radio" has been thoroughly trained to play Sci-Fi thematic music. "!Ultraviolence Radio!" plays a variety of angst-ridden tunes by my favorite groups. The sublime creeping death of "TreeOfWoe" features classic and modern gothic music. Sprocket plays those artists that most intelligently emulate and expand on the Kraftwerk pure industrial-machina mindset. "Pandance" is an experiment in modern belly dance music.

I think there needs to be a goth rock opera of Lord of the Rings. The goblins and orks singing black metal of course, the allies of man doing goth rock and darkwave.

"Journey, journey seaman journey
Each does it in his own way
One thrusts the spear into a man
Another then into the fish
Journey, journey seaman journey
And the waves cry softly
In their blood a spear is lodged
They bleed softly into the ocean
Journey, journey seaman journey
And the waves cry softly
In their heart a spear is lodged
They bleed themselves dry on the shore."
--"Riese, Riese" (english translation) by Rammstein
