I am influenced by my environment and upbringing, and behave either in concert with or by reacting against various stimuli derived from societal or aesthetic sources.

I'd say the idea of having no boundaries is something I can keep in mind. At least, it keeps me motivated.

my hard on in my pants for hot steamy lovefucking and the hard on in my mind for good music, literature, film, and experiences- childhood, animals, nature, space, industrial shit, dreams, etc.
All the typical bullshit really. |

Dead-Air, you probably have some of the best influences on here.
I actively celebrate the entire recorded catalogue of Harry Partch, and I'm glad he influences someone else as well. |

Thanks. I may have just thought about it a bit longer than a lot of the folks on this board (I've had a few more years to than most). I would really put Sonic Youth at the top of my cultural influences because they taught me in the '80s to embrace your influences while not trying to recreate them. So many of my influences I first heard about through SY, that I owe them two debts - one for their music, and one for everyone else's! Harry Partch is such an important musician that I often feel guilty I haven't gotten hold of more of his recordings in my collection and listened to him more often. Weird how we don't always do that with some of our overall favorites (at least I don't, somewhat a side effect of having access to huge college radio libraries for much of my life). I didn't really make a New Year's resolution, so perhaps I will now, to buy more Partch and envelope my life with it. Might be good music for the baby too, once my mom has left from helping us get started. I'm sure she'd freak out if I started playing it, but somehow I think Partch's unique tones could be very soothing to an infant without a lifetime of traditional mainstream cultural biases to get in the way. |

Dead air has some excellent artwork to go with those influences. The creativity and ideas he acquires are very blatent in his work. Definitely one of my favorite artists on the board. Some of those influences I share too:
Mind altering: Past drug experiences Caffine Hinduism Artistically: David Choe Banksy Audrey Kawasaki Jacob Bannon (Converge) Musically: Mouthus µ-Ziq Xasthur / Wold Dr. Dre RZA Things: Electronic Gadgets Wood Earrings Arrows Tenticles
