As general topics, I love virtual reality, media theory, video games, art history, and comic books. In terms of causes and ideas, I'm passionate about the well-being and fair compensation of creative people. We live in a perverse time where we are barraged by media on all sides and CONTENT is more inescapable and interwoven into our lives than ever, and yet somehow creative people across fields find it harder and harder to make a living. How is it that we have so much power, and yet beautiful things are becoming harder to create? These trends threaten our long term culture, intellectual well being, and sense of beauty and wonder. I love to think and talk about what can theoretically or practically be done in the world to help change the tide.
