Full-time college student, psychology researcher, radio DJ, and amateur artist/musician. Also an art, music, film, and pop culture enthusiast.
Enjoys watching films by the Coen brothers, Christopher Nolan, and Wes Anderson. Also, any Pixar movie except for the Cars franchise.
Favorite artists include Gordon Matta-Clark, Marcel Duchamp, Keith Haring, Christo, Rachel Whiteread, and Philip Guston. Shepard Fairey is also sort of cool, I guess.
Favorite musical genres include hip-hop, electronica, garage rock, blues rock, surf rock, folk rock, noise rock, punk rock, hardcore punk, post-punk, synthpop, chamber pop, dream pop, shoegaze, new wave, chillwave, and witch house.
And yes, I tried to make those lists sound as pretentious as possible.
