home of the dog

so this is the part where I wax lyrical about the who and the why....and you all look and think what? ok..........
AM CURRENTLY...
Being a designer (Interpretive / Interior Architecture / Exhibition), riding my mountain bike when not playing with my son...building a tipi (it's the only tent you can put a fire in...I wanna be warm at festies and camping). Fixing up my house....wishing there was better balance between work and play....
AM INTO...
Conceptual continuity, the humor of the surreal and coincidental, the funny smell of jazz....music festivals (latest fave = big chill, well worth a look), the making of music (on guitar, mandolin, banjo sounds all very folkie...and maybe it is...but let's not get into holes for pidgeons) and didg (6 months learning to circular breath...but worth every moment). Also very into comedy, I must confess a deep and fundamental appreciation/symathy for the brain of Eddie Izzard, and was listening to Billy Connolly from the womb.

architecture with an rationale, structure, passion for materials, light...space
