P.S.
I just found out that I can contact freaky John Waters through this website. His birthday is a few days away from mine... totally freaky!

I used to have rat who lived in my shirt half the time he was growing up. He was the best rat ever, Rex/Nude breed, but he had all his hair.

Evening, lovelies...

>Who is your favorite artist?

Yoshitaka Amano. I rarely choose "favorites" of anything, but his lavish illustrations combine the lyrical meditation of traditional asian forms, with the storytelling aspect of manga. His watercolor and linework really stroke me in a psycho-sexual/spiritual place.

Many would know his work from the Final Fantasy series, or as the creator of Vampire Hunter D, or even the book he illustrated of Neil Gaiman's (The Dream Hunters)

>who is your favorite band?

V.A.S.T. ... or... INCUS (a tribe does exist)[Sorry, gotta plug my friends!] Anything darkly spiritual, with a light in its' center.

>what did you do last night?

Made love in my dreams...

"Wyrd Sisters" by Terry Pratchet. Avoided him for some time, but damn is he a good writer. I rarely burst into laughter reading.

>What are you watching/or last thing you watched?

The last thing i recall choosing to watch was "The Venture Bros.", an adult comedic spoof of Johnny Quest style Hanna Barbara shows. Amazingly, i discovered that J.G. Thirwell (a.k.a. Clint Ruin, Foetus, a producer for NIN, The The, and some other stuff i can't remember) wrote the themesong, which is why it kicked ass (sort of industrial take on 1950's action film music, which is what most of his work sounds like, really.)

>your favorite drink?

Clean water.

>Your favorite place?

So far, its the Boston region, which is why i just moved here.

>Do you write?

Nothing longer than one phrase, and mostly for it's visual impact.

>Do you like photography?

Not after photo school, i really don't. (Fucking art school...)

>Favorite movie and why?

That's a hard one. I'd have to go with Dark Crystal, i think (Jim Henson, that Froud lady), as it is an excellent example of a completely alternate world that most resembes a place i'd rather exist in. Although the Terry Gilliam Trilogy of "Time Bandits", "Brazil" and "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" accomplishes a heart wrenching analysis of the tragic way the the world of the dreamer is shattered and ripped bloody upon the world (lets say "consensus reality") of the more mundane. Beautiful, poignant, actually made me cry a few times. Blah blah blah.

>Your favourite animal and why:

Beta fish. They're pretty, they're friendly, they're smart (for fish).

New question: >What is your deepest inner self you wish to be?

This one's intense (for me, i don't know about you): In my heart, i would love to be a tall, beautiful and haunting hermaphraditic being, a natural alchemist, an artist that would forge reality about them in his/her passing. Worlds of dream would spin from my dance, and all the universe would be a painting, an endless dream, of deep dark peace. I'd probably have wings that looked like fish fins, and hair that resembled horns, too.
