Things You Might Want to Know:
There's an old joke - um... two elderly women are at a Catskill mountain resort, and one of 'em says, "Boy, the food at this place is really terrible." The other one says, "Yeah, I know; and such small portions." Well, that's essentially how I feel about design - full of loneliness, and misery, and suffering, and unhappiness, and it's all over much too quickly. The... the other important joke, for me, is one that's usually attributed to Groucho Marx; but, I think it appears originally in Freud's "Wit and Its Relation to the Unconscious," and it goes like this - I'm paraphrasing - um, "I would never want to belong to any club that would have someone like me for a member." That's the key joke of my adult life, in terms of my relationship with design.

I've done a little bit of photography, all strangers on the street. I don't know any of these people and I only verbally approached a few of them. Most of them didn't know I was taking their picture.
Inspiration
A few years ago, my five-year-old cousin asked me what I liked to do. I told him I was in a band. This is the image he drew of what he imagined my band and I looked like. I have been aspiring to live up to this drawing ever since.
