Music and photography are my main interests. I have an uncontrollable curiosity about many other things, especially with regards to artistic expression.
Music
Progressive rock, especially of the avant-garde variety, is my favorite, but as a result of music to which I've been introduced at the prog fests I have developed an affinity to all things progressive. All music is fair game, though. Singer/songwriters, alternative, electronic, etc. almost all genres and sub-genres have a place on my shelves. I always loved modern jazz and modern "classical" music, too.
Movies
Cathi and I mostly like comedys and science fiction. We have been enjoying going to the Ritz Theaters in Philadelphia on Wednesdays when showings are $6 all day. We've been known to even see two in one day.
Television
Science fiction and comedy. Documentaries on archeology, nature, science, superstition, and other subjects. TV is a good place for movies I haven't yet seen, too.
Books
"Serious" fiction (in alphabetical order): Kobo Abe, John Barth, Donald Barthelme, Samuel Beckett, Saul Bellow, Jorge Luis Borges, Anthony Burgess, William S. Burroughs, Julio Cortazar, Don Delillo, Carlos Fuentes, William Gaddis, James Joyce, Jack Kerouac, Stanislaw Lem, Vladimir Nabokov, V.S. Naipaul, Thomas Pynchon, and others to be named later.

Who I'd like to meet: Independent minded people who are able be tolerant and respectful to those with different points of view. We don't have to agree about anything beyond the fact that we don't have to agree to be respected. Being able to laugh a lot helps, too.
Mark Dignam has been bumping into Paul Luc and Ben Shannon a lot, at Treelady Studios, where they are all working, on their upcoming albums. They admire each others work so much, they decided to put together what promises to be, a mini singer/songwriter festival.. Watch for special guests and a very memorable night at The Rex Theater, 1602 East Carson Street. Pittsburgh, PA 15203. 8pm. $10.
hey! we are trying to change something... our new singer erik can't be a full member of dreamscape because the stess to travel a lot is affecting his health. so we decided to work with more than one singer - honestly we will work with even more than two... hopefully you will like that idea! we like it a lot because we will be very flexible and our sound will become even more complex! kind regards! DREAMSCAPE (progressive metal from germany) (new cd november 2009! - buy or let die!)
PS: always believe in your dreams! and don't get frightened if they are becoming real! - because for a believer they will!

........Notre nouveau clip, entièrement fait à la main... PIG MONSTER.
Déjanté, hors normes, expérimental, décalé, théâtral, déglingué.

Crazy, non-standard, out of norme, unusual, experimental, out of phase, theatrical, delirious.
