Where I’m from
I hail from the sunny shores of Stratham. It’s not too far away and it’s a real bop and a half.. We used to have a hippie commune up the street some way but gentrification soon saw to that… It was either that or the Kool Aid… Such a shame either way.
Aside from the inane religious compliance and resulting mass sacrifice it was a pretty good childhood; I got to catch a free (regular sized) orange bus to school every morning, climb like probably a hundred trees on the regular and go on to live a life not to dissimilar to that of Patrick Swayze in Road House.
How I got into the industry
It was really just born of a frustration of not being able to do something. That something was being able to fix my car… And here we are.
The irony of the situation is that now the last thing I want to do is fix my car. It’s just always in a constant state of barely getting me to where I need to be but it gets me there every time. I’d like to argue that this is the true definition of mastery.
Anybody can design a bridge that’ll work but it takes a truly skilled person to design one that only just stays up.
What I like about the industry
I can tell you what I dislike about it….
Minor annoyances aside; my personality is really suited to the instant gratification of this type of work. The relatively quick turn around and the general nature of being able to take something that doesn’t function and making it mostly functional again is a dynamic that really feeds my soul. There is a lot of reward (dopamine) in very quick succession and the constantly varying nature of the work keeps it fresh and exciting.
What are my personal interests?
You could start a-whole-nother website with this one, it’s just a rabbit hole of hobbies and ideas.
Cars are obviously on the list; I’m currently building a rat rod out of a MK2 Jag I inherited from some guy named Graham that I never got a chance to meet. It’s going to be kind of filthy; with turbos, patina and a stripped out interior. Most of my summary of the project is communicated through flappy hand gestures, so if you’d like to know more please just ask and stand a few steps back.
I also create things. I do a bit of design work; mostly industrial design/engineery sort of stuff and make my dreams come alive with 3d printing and CNC routing. I’ve been really trying to push my creative abilities though and have gotten into sharpie art am currently learning to do a bit of digital stuff too… I like to get a bit weird with it. My next goal in life, after drawing all over my coffee table, is to create an Elvis shaped candle that smells like a peanut butter, bacon and banana flavoured sandwich.
Whilst my hands are busy desecrating innocent hobbies I am all about music and getting as much of it as I can into my ear holes. Mainly stoner rock but really just about anything that’s super riffy and gritty. Sometimes I like to dress up like a middle aged man and just dance my little heart out.
One day I hope to create a soundscape that truly encapsulates my whole existence. One that can transcend words and be used in situations such as this. The discordant melody of my soul would really be one for the ages.
