Can you not widen your interest? It's a bit of a limiting one, if you don't mind me saying.
Oh, you do? Oh.   |

Hi CockneyRebel,
I am quietly fascinated by your seemingly unlimited everchanging (Kinks?) avatars. Where do you get all the pictures?
Saturn |
I get them from magazines and various websites. 
What kind of music do you enjoy?

Appetising? |
Just checked the Properties of this pic for a hint, but not joy. What the hell is that?

It's actually a very good question, because when I was very young I percieved inanimate objects to have feelings and such
Now I've just decided to play on the cones for the effect of entertainment |
I think that many kids perhaps do in some way. I'm thinking of teddy bears and such like. But it sounds like you're taking objects that wouldn't so obviously lend themselves to being seen as subjects, to be such. There could be quite a lot of comedy value in your cone project. I tend to think that a big part of effective comedy is bringing into consciousness or saying what has been unconscious or unsaid. In a way, I can see that you're perhaps doing something like that with your cones. You're perhaps asking the question of what makes us different from the inanimate objects that we physically arrange as a society, and in so doing, showing us an aspect of ourselves where we are partly just physical objects that can rearrange themselves. Particularly in still photography.

Well...I do have other interests, but that's the one I like the most.
I like weather, photography, videomaking, writing, animation, reading, meeting you, other stuff too

So Swiss German alpine herdsman's macaroni isn't the best-looking food you've ever seen?
It was a weird concoction, I'll give you that. |

What kind of music do you enjoy? |
I didn't realise they did so many photo shoots. I guess they were pretty big at the time.
I like a range of music. It really depends on my mood. I can enjoy many pop songs from the 80s onwards as upbeat, feel-good, modern and fresh. I sometimes like some rock. I also like to play classical and jazz. Not too keen on blues. I have tended to get frustrated in the past talking about music, because talking about it seems so far removed from that enjoyable experience of listening to it. I like to listen to what I like the sound of and I don't like snobbery in music, even though I will be a bit snobby to the extent that I will denigrate music that I don't enjoy. I like to have the freedom in listening music to just experience it and not have to think about how it is regarded by others. So, I will listen to some artists that are potentially embarassing for someone like me to admit listening to, but ultimately, I don't care because nothing can touch that personal experience with the music. |

I personally prefer older shows. |
Comes and goes. I was just looking to see if there was a new series of Have I got news on the iplayer. I don't have a telly at the moment but can watch stuff on my computer. I like watching movies.
Are you quite retrospective in your music, tv and other cultural preferences generally? I romanticize the 1967-1970 period for the music and hippy culture and general aesthetic portrayed in the media. I particularly like the Doors and Hendrix.
