Personal statement:
I am a former programmer for an Arthouse movie theatre (The Imperial) in Augusta GA. I used to write film reviews for www.keenlyobserved.com. These days I channel those efforts into Spout while I pursue a degree in journalism from Georgia State University.
I love film, but am also fascinated with new media in general. Specifically how the entertainment world is about to go through a major transition as video games become a viable choice for the mainstream. Soon they will rival movies and music for dominance of the market.
Right now I'm reading "Emperor and the Wolf" the dual biography of Akira Kurosawa and Toshiro Mifune.
These days I'm obsessed with Japanese New Wave films of the 60's, and the new American indie wave of ultra low budget movies.
