Music, Movies, and Books

Like I said. I don´t spend a moment awake not thinking about movie making. I enjoy movies from all around the globe. For me its not just about watching a movie and being effected by it, but also about figuring out how it was done, and admiring it as an art form. Right now I am really enjoying films coming out of Latin America, I think the culture, in general, translates incredible onto film. The colours, the passion and the energy of Brazil, Colombia, Peru and all the rest is amazing. Some of my favourite movies are. Apocalypse Now, Do The Right Thing, City Of God, Elite Squad 1 and 2, Rear Window, The Fall, The Host, Y Tu Mama Tambien, Malcolm X, The Hurt Locker, District 9. I read books that inspire me and teach me, and take me somewhere is haven´t been and can´t find in reality. The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, The World Without Us by Alan Weisman, Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad, The Odyssey by Homer, LOTR by Tolkien. Music creates the mood for sure!!! Calle 13, Ben Harper, Muse, Buena Vista Social Club, Family Cactus, Gotan Project, Johnny Cash, Lupe Fiasco, M.I.A, Manu Chao, Ojos de Brujo, Salmonella Dub, TomWaits, Pendulum.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moved to Colombia to marry an incredible Colombian Woman! Didn't want to leave so started a little company te get by which has become my dream job!
