It's not really very exciting, so I won't bore you with much of it.
I'm solitary by nature, gregarious at odd moments, cynical when my head isn't in the clouds, easily bored and yet easily amused, and am often quite inconsistent with any of that.

Favorite Music:
Among countless others,
VNV Nation, Covenant, Apoptygma Berzerk, other synthpop groups, and random electronica, for dancing, working, and travelling.
Rock of many flavours, from the Box to the Killers, and so much in between, for all occasions.
An occasional dash of angry emo/goth music, but otherwise I find I've outgrown that phase.
Soundtracks to movies, shows, and games that managed to grab my imagination.
and finally, a special note to DEVO, who are just too amusing to ignore.
