My SOULGEEK Self: |
I was born and raised in Corning, New York. I am active in the Green Party and Occupy movement, running for City Council several times and most recently for mayor. I graduated from American University in Washington, D.C. with a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science in 1998, and I currently volunteer at the Corning Library. My interests include: philosophy (poststructuralism and anarchism), movies (classic films from the 1960’s and 1970’s, foreign films, and independent films), comic books (Silver Age and Bronze Age), microbrew beers, fractals, the Welsh language, Maori tattoos, Pacific Northwest Indian art, New Mexico silver and turquoise jewelry, the sculptures of Henry Moore, Norse mythology and Asatru, the hyborian age, alternate histories, xenoanthropology, atompunk, raypunk, psychedelic posters, bubble houses, cooperatives, 3D printing, arcologies, monorails, dirigibles, countercultures and neotribalism, architecture (gothic revival, art nouveau, retrofuturism, and brutalism), and music (Bob Dylan, folk music, psychedelic rock, progressive rock, and 1970’s glam rock).
My primary talent is the ability to make connections between ideas or concepts that at first glance have no apparent relationship. For example, I have recently made connections between the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze and 3D printing as well as make connections between the philosophy of Martin Heidegger and anarchism. Though it may seem improbable, I really enjoy moments like that. It is the equivalent of having a fudge brownie for the mind. I am working on a philosophical project that I call immanentalism that tries to make connections between things like cooperatives, 3D printing, poststructuralism, anarchism, neotribalism, and postscarcity. I have just started putting my notes and writings on to a wiki. I have my own Pinterest board called Crab Nebula Blues and a tumblr devoted to the art of John Severin. |
The SoulGeek I'm Looking For: |
I have never been on a date and never had a girlfriend so I am open to anyone who will be willing to give me a chance. If I have a type, it would probably be dark hair, upturned nose, triangular chin, high cheekbones, and almond shaped eyes but there is a wide range of beautiful women out there so I do not want to be too particular. There were many women who I was attracted to or had a crush on in my life, but there was never that spark that would signal it was reciprocated. I never had the opportunity of a woman being attracted to me, and as time passed this became more and more difficult to achieve due to this lack of experience. Therefore, I am looking for the chance to experience what many experienced in their 20’s, and see if I can find that spark. In other words, I am looking for a combination of a physical relationship with a friendship. Someone who I can share myself in terms of what inspires me and in terms of the pleasures in life.

Ideally | |
Ideally, if I could be any character from the worlds of Sc-Fi, Horror & Fantasy I would be: |
the Doctor

Raj from The Big Bang Theory
|

My Geekdom | |
Why I love Sci-Fi, Horror, Fantasy, Animation, etc... |
I think the idea of worldbuilding that is intrinsic to scifi is possibly the most appealing. The anthropological aspects of an alien civilization can be a work of art as well as perhaps offer a model for human society.
