About me

Gender Male
Location Calgary, Alberta, Canada
Introduction "A savage in the city!"
Interests lego (discontinued mini figures mostly)
Favorite Movies Truth to be said, they actually do not differ that much one from another. Imperfect as it is, "I Even Met Happy Gypsies" never fails to both move me and cheer me up.
Favorite Music "Jesus Blood Never Failed Me Yet" by Gavin Bryars ranks among my favorites for a number of reasons: it is both ancient and modern; it is pop and it is, at the same time, folk but more than anything else it is classical; it is incidental and simple yet it is extremely well planned and comlex; it is minimal and it is symphonic; it fits cathedral and a street corner all the same; serious as it is, there is something humorous in the fact that a person like me, or you, would listen to it and enjoy it. It is the only recording that I with confidence can claim everyone should own, as a safe shortcut to beauty and as a reminder what a listening experience should be like.
Favorite Books "Wine lists, menus". Also, seeing that I know it by heart, "To Urania". It questions, in a delicate manner, a notion of survival as the ultimate achievement. Thankfully, it fails to provide us with an answer.
