Astroboy 69 (aka aardvark mutineer: keeper of heraldic ants)

who i am...

39yr old male, live canberra australia, writer and photographer (alack, neither full time yet) and pretty fair chef. BA from ANU in philosophy and english lit. photography diploma from CiT and currently writing a volume of poetry, having stalled badly in trying to write a sort of travel philosophy book, illustrated with my own images, mainly because 8mths+ after getting back from six months travelling i still haven't processed and proofed all my film yet (still 50 rolls in the freezer!) am now putting together a volume of poetry and my journal entries, below, follow the exploits and tribulations of the writing process...

bit of eclectic tastes in all manner of subjects - love food, culture, motorcycles, philosophy, science, dance, football and other theatre and am fascinated with the concept of 'experience' and how the universal articulation of that concept tallies with individuals' accounts and my own perception of it.

basically, i am a nice bloke who likes people and having fun. my philosophy is that hedonism understands. if it doesn't feel good, don't do it.
