// Q&A
Where do you live? Brooklyn, New York.
Achievements? Presidential Academic Fitness Award, Tripple-Honor Bar Thespian, and way too many art awards to count.
Regrets? I'm trying to live without them, but there are a few.
Religion? None (Secular Humanist).
Eats? Rabbit food.
First album? Depeche Mode Violator, and I bought it on cassette tape. I think I wore it out after not taking out of my Walkman for 6 months.
Album that changed your life? Sonic Youth Daydream Nation -- it blew me away when I first heard it. You know, it recently got added to the U.S. Library of Congress.
Top five desert island albums? David Bowie ChangesBowie, The Beatles 1967-1970 (the blue album), Oasis Definitely Maybe, R.E.M. Monster, John Lennon Imagine
Favorite filmmaker? Stanley Kubrick, but Hitchcock and Spielberg are up there with him. Ang Lee is probably the best of the new generation of filmmakers -- only time will tell.
Favorite artist? Andy Warhol -- because he showed something amazing and beautiful in the ordinary and mundane.
Favorite photographer? Bruce Davidson -- because his photos were so honest.

yo dude, Have not been able to talk to you for a while. How have you been? Work has been super busy. Going to San Fran for tday and getting a truck from my uncle to drive back to portland. Work will be light for a while now. I think you can see the animations I've been working on for the past couple months. Look at www.getalittleparis.com I animated all of the "mashups" except 2 of them. I should be getting higher res versions in a couple weeks for my reel. Hope all is well. I'll ring you sometime soon. Eric
