Regarding Computers and Technology, this will be my 28th year involved in this field. I've produced Albums, Artwork, Written books, Short Stories and a whole lot more! I started long ago at the tender age of 8, when my Father brought home a Commodore PET (Yes, the Green Screen 4K Beast!). I took it apart the next day, much to my Fathers Dismay. My Punishment?, rebuild it! That was the catalyst for the next 28 or so years. I did many things, Learn Basic, then Machine Code and used it to produce music. I progressed through all the home computers of that era Commodores Pet, CBM, Vic20, C64, +4,C128, and Amiga. I had an Atari 520FM then an Atari 1040STFM, I used those again for music. My favorite software at the time was ElectroSound 64 (For the C64) and Sonix (Amiga). I remember those days fondly, when Activision, Rabbit Software, Interceptor Software, Anarog and a whole host of other old-school Software companies. Household names like Mathew Crowther, Rob Hubbard, Matt Grey, Bogg and many, many more.

Yes, I owned the Dragon, BBC 'A' and 'B', an Oric and Mr.Sinclairs beasties like the Spectrum and the ZX80/81 coupled with some offerings from Amstrad, Texas Instruments and a few others. My Favorite machine(s)? Definately the Commodore 64, Amiga and the Atart ST's. The Commodore machines for the Coding/Music (long live SID! and Paula!) and the Atari for, well the games! (STOS!). I had two Amiga's both Painted Black (Favorite color ahoy!).

1 MEG Fast/Chip ruled the day!

So I'm a techie, a coder, a Musician, writer which collectively makes me a Geek of some repute! If you want to know more about me you can also check out the IAC's site I had two tracks in the top 10 and top 5 which both held their position for many months. There's a few Mugshots of me, and a lot of writting about me, but more important! it's raw, honest and all me.

I am a Computer Guru, Advertising Genius and a marketing master! oh, and I read, cook, make music, make pictures, and much more.. I am more than the sum of my parts, Deeper and more than appears on the surface,.

I do a lot of reading and writing Sci-fi and horror; however I do read other material such as Mystery and educational material. I watch Sci-fi and I am seriously into and own all the Godzilla releases (all<- JAP/USA/RARES), Star Trek (ALL), and things like The six million dollar man, through to x-men cartoons, basically I hold onto my youth and balance that with the maturity of age, i.e. I am as happy sitting down watching 'Journey to the center of the Earth', "Gwangi" or "Doom"! I like watching Natural History Channels (Discovery etc) and I am quite at home watching old war movies, B-Movies or anything really..

I cook, and have done for 13yrs or so now (have a BS in Culinary arts), I am proficient in many styles including Chinese, American, English, Mexican, Italian etc, btw I can make over 10 varieties of cheesecake! oops.. My (ex) Wife never cooked in 7yrs thats gives you and idea of my ethics and cooking abilities. I mess around with computers, Read and watch TV. I do not Drink (much..) nor do Drugs, Nor have I ever done Drugs. I would drink if the situation permitted/warranted it

To all my friends… past, present and future.
I offer you but what I am… my music.
It is what I was born to do… what I can contribute to this world.
Now, more than ever, our souls need it’s soothing.
However vast and changing we may be, it is constant.
It is understood in any language, and it is real.

P.s. I have MS, so feel free to 'hub' me about that, if you need..
