Mark Zabala's Blurbs |
About me:
I am obsessed with all forms of art and technology and love doing creative things using the most advanced tools at my disposal. Life should be exciting -- more exciting -- all the time. I am constantly pushing for better music and a more creative, open, repsonsible culture. We need better means of production and less waste. We need renewable energy, sustainable devlopment, a better government and some real progress.
I'm a freak with a twisted and sarcastic sense of humor. I think a lot about semi abstract concepts and the relationships between things, so the films, books and music that I like have to be very stimulating. I like things on the fringe -- all the trailblazing stuff.

Who I'd like to meet:
Honestly, I like people who are very energetic, talkative and opinionated. I want someone who thinks critically about the world around them (and I mean the world outside of television). A twisted sense of humor is definitely a plus, but I also love people who are just straight up geeky. Bring your n3rd on.
oh, and I would love it if you love art and pretty music and crunchy noise and world music and grunge and jazz and techno and psytrance and indie rock and IDM and EBM and electro and fast music and chill music and really enjoy sound, dare I say it, more than lyrics?
