This journal is now friends only. Please comment to the "friends only" post if you want to be added.
I'm a musician (woodwinds and Latin percussion) and practitioner of Chinese Kung Fu (Wing Chun).
Though my primary focus is Wing Chun, I have a great interest in all aspects of fighting and self-defense.
I'm a vegetarian, have several tattoos, and can occasionally be found at Goth/Industrial clubs in the SoCal area. I've worked in a studio as a recording/mixing/mastering engineer for a number of years, and I do sound reinforcement and recording of live music from time to time. I'm on a life long search for family of choice.
I'm deeply interested in the spiritual, metaphysical, super-natural, philosophical. I have a great interest in the macabre and the darker things of life. I move in very alternative circles.
I love Asian dragons and what they represent, and I identify very closely with tigers.
All icons in this journal were created by me. I've tried to cite the sources of the material for my icons whenever I could.
"Shang Chi" means a spirit that rises and advances.
The very first post in this journal is here.
My personal contact and physical address info is here. Updated 25 January 2008
The artwork of Alex Grey has had a profound effect on me spiritually and is the source of many of my icons. You can view his artwork by clicking the banners below.
I have also been influenced by H.R. Giger's work:
Here's one of my favorite sites for serious self-defense:
