What non-music stuff inspires you?

[SlavikSvensk]

books, films, nature...whatever...

[massplanck]

rusty old buildings + the coastline + mountains

I dont do tv or films (cant sit still for more than ten minutes)

I generally dont do fiction either.. i'd rather read about the cretacious period and how rocks are formed etc.. :study:

[SlavikSvensk]

i like car graveyards...very mad max. saw a lot summer before last when driving across the usa...

[g]

lots of film, production design, and the like; hours of discussion there. downtown in the rain. large dead-end alleys. Ellsworth Kelly, Josef Koudelka, Stanislav Szukalski, Ramiro Rodriguez, Cam De Leon. yer momma.

[SlavikSvensk]

yer momma.

yes, she is pretty inspiring...

...films are a huge influence for me too...too many to name, but a few...

the warriors
2001
solaris (original tarkovsky version, not soderberg remake)
witnesses (croatian film, fractured narrative, mind-blowing)
thx-1138

Sci fi, spaceships, epic cityscapes like in Bladerunner, oceans, mountains, the way the endless rows of shitty redbrick back to backs in Leeds 6 is so ugly and yet so beautiful 'cos it's home, good trips, forests, old buildings, ruins, cute girls dancing in strobelight, silence, being in love, experiencing hate, coming to terms with pain, learning to accept suffering, laughter, tears, tackling crippling depression and keeping going, John Martin's Plains of Heaven paintings, Clive Barker's Weaveworld, Robert Heinlein's Time enough for Love, HR Geiger...

[dirty_bass]

My main influence is non musical.
Mostly literature, and painting.
I write and paint, and so they all feed off of each other.

But in particular my non musical muses are
W.S Burroughs
Russel Mills
Gerhard Richter
Francis Bacon
Frank Miller
John Bergin
Shirow Masamune
Shinya Tsukamoto
Charles Bukowski
Samuel Beckett
Terry Gilliam
Hunter S Thompson
Andy Goldsworthy
Beat Takeshi
err the list goes on

[ampassasinbirmingham]

Brutalism, a form of arcitechture that was founded by le coubusier. I also love anything visual typeography, graphics and modern art. some of the old masters can do it or me as well such as miller as dirty put in his list but on the whole its modern art that gets me. magazines and books also get me going creative review, some of the banksy books and some of the new graphic books coming outa london at the moment are also pretty hot.

Philip K Dick


a scanner darkly is a life-changing book...

[slavestudios]

belfast.. espesh the old barren peaceline places..

the Ulster Museum

movies such as Star Wars, 2001 & 2010, Fight Club, Saturn 3, THX... any old sci-fi movies...

belfast docks.. theres something about industry

building sites

the stunted attitudes of others who can see no good in any music unless they like it.. these ppl are responsible for more creative juices than they will ever know lol



but mostly, being alive. the second i wake up, i hear things..

[slavestudios]

oh yeah...

and massive natural disasters.. tsunami & earthquakes & tornado



nothing inspires me more than Gaia's quest to rid the planet of the virus that is mankind. beautiful
