It's supposedly a "
meme" (I'm not seeing the virality of it, tho- so to me it's a "thing"), but it's forced me to cut the mental cheese to a certain degree...
The Rules: Players start with 8 random facts about themselves. Those who are tagged should post these rules and their 8 random facts. Players should tag eight other people and notify them that they have been tagged.
Marty Weil at Ephemera has tagged me.
Ecch. Here goes:
1. I believe reality is a construct of our conciousness as much as it is a set of empirical cause and effect phenomena and that both states coexist.
2. I love me some Zombies.
Zack Snyder/James Gunn's Dawn of the Dead,
Zombi,
28 Days Later,
Planet Terror, T
he Original Night of the Living Dead and
its remake ....the list goes on..... my whole family probably thinks more about
what to do in case of a Zombie attack than in case of a fire. I never watched horror until about
4 years ago.
3. When I see an ocean or a baby, I feel as though I am looking into the face of the universe itself, and will always spend a little time letting the ocean sink in or greeting the baby.
4. I infrequently have flying dreams, but the best ones are where I'm in
a contraption that never gets higher than, say, 35-50 feet off the ground.
5. A large part of my attitude about art stem from visits to
MOMA as an adolescent.
Kienholz,
Lichtenstein,
Yokoo,
Rauschenberg,
Wesselman, the
Lumia Suite, the ability for
film or a
vacuum cleaner to be art all changed me.
6. I have a degree in film, but after my wife informed me I knew nothing about it I realized knew nothing about it. I was behaving like an egg-headed dilletante. I have been since reborn into the world of
Turner Classic Movies.
7. I have eaten
fugu.
8.

Those I will tag shall remain undisclosed, because I hate all "Boycott Amoco on Wednesday and we'll lower oil prices" "Send this email to 5 friends and Bill Gates will make crippled children walk" kind of stuff, yet I feel there's some post-profile validity to this. Conversely, if you
want me to tag you just ask! :
