Inspirations

My biggest inspirations, mostly listed here to make myself seem inordinately cool and well-cultured, include:

• my ever-pestered family and friends
• my jaunts down wikipedia rabbitholes and all kinds of obscura
• musicians like: The Cure, Lil B, Bjork, Dean Blunt, Songs: Ohia, Les Rallizes Denudes, Three Six Mafia, and Elliott Smith
• the many interesting textures i find around my house and neighbourhood
• 1871's The Jabberwocky, William Carlos Williams/Walt Whitman anthologies
• a love of the history of people and their politics 
• other literary works such as The Illustrated Man, Yeats' Irish Fairy and Folk Tales, Titus Groan, Memory Sorrow and Thorn, anything Vonnegut, and A Confederacy of Dunces
• the jittering fidget of my uninhibited hand as possessed by an outside whim
• the movies of Greenaway, Maddin, Varda, Bogdanovich, Daneliya, Aleksey German, Wenders, Kusturica, Ryazanov, and Zakharov (im a soviet movie nerd)
• the animated show Chowder
• the creative conditioning of a red-eye flight with only a pen and paper
• Disco Elysium and Minecraft
