Interests
I've been finishing off some Arabic songs I've been writing and working on for a while now, for an album I'll hopefully be releasing soon called 'Mamnou3 El Intizar'.

I commissioned ~Jtumburus to draw/paint the cover for me based on an idea I had, and he's done absolutely wonderful work with it. We ended up with two pretty cool versions of the same concept, you can see those at :

and

I really love the work he's done on these, and am mostly leaning towards using the 2nd one as a cover, and the first one on the inside somewhere, or on a poster. Not quite sure yet :)

And - in case you're curious - you can hear some of the music at [link] if you use facebook or on my site at [link] :)
  • Listening to: Gn'R
  • Reading: Fragments of an Anarchist Anthropology
  • Playing: Red Alert 3 Beta
  • Drinking: Coke

Damn it, I saw again your wallpaper in my favourites today and paid another visit, and only now noticed the Philip Dick references !!!

Greetings from a half-lifer in this particular land of absurdity.

May you never run out of ubik ! Keep some to shove it down their throats when the time comes. :B

Dude, you've got some magnificent artwork in your gallery. I really envy you political artists, you've got some big balls to take the abuse and flak that you do in order to produce the works that we get to see.

Great photos, keep up the fantastic work. Don't let The Man, or any of his cronies, get you down. :B

Thanks a lot :)

Well, the abuse is a little easier to take when you're sure of what you're saying and when you realize that before knowing, you might've been just as ignorant :)
