Bio:Life story, highly compressed: Throwing away a perfectly good undergraduate education in cognitive science, I decided I wanted to write music for movies, and high-tailed it through several odd years of graduate education to this end. Now I'm a professional film composer with strange penchants for epistemology, C++, cartooning, and being a smartass when my clients aren't around. (And often enough when they are.) When I am old I will write cantankerous op-eds and nerd novels like Robert Jordan but with better plots. I am riotously funny yet oddly insightful, according to the people I pay a weekly stipend to praise me.

I often play the skeptic and devil's advocate. This isn't because I'm a pessimist, but because I take my optimism seriously.

If you add me to your friends list, you are encouraged to drop me a note of hisaying slash self-introduction.

Behold my linkage:
