I'm a web developer and programmer by trade, with my focus on good communication through the medium we know as the internet. Nothing shits me more than a design that hasn't been put through proper usability testing, because then it lacks pretty badly on the communication front. I'm also quite a study nerd - as I (2-3 times/week) will read up on the new programming techs, even putting little scripts together or writing simple apps to understand a language better.

Am also an avid liquid dancer/popper from Sydney, Australia - and have seen the scene here grow quite rapidly. Liquid dancing is still a very rare dance form it seems, and I'm glad. Always a neat party trick ;)

Production-wise, no area of expertise yet - but I can see myself becoming quite a synthesis "expert", because I freakin' love it. That's probably the programming geek in me coming out :)

I do this whole music thing as a hobby. It's most definitely becoming a passion, but that would mean 2 passions in my life (3 if you include the missus), but I simply can't split my time 3 ways, so I think music will always just be a hobby - hopefully a hobby that other people appreciate (aka like what I do :P)

As cheesy and lame as this sounds and I'll probably regret saying it afterwards but fuck it....I'm really good at poi/glowstringing haha. And I would say I'm better than most at using Pro Tools and doing post production/audio engineering stuff :D

i suck at this so much. the place i rent from hates me.

what is the official proper technique?

edit: just watched deadly's tutorial. i'm going to start practising.
This haha.

I've just been using the elbow method, and it did kinda bug me that it always ends up tangled. Seemed pointless wrapping it when it ends up tangled anyway. Practising that, cheers deadly.

Are you hiring? I've done gel electrophoresis too... but I'm jobless... :( DNA extraction is a lot less complicated than people think... (not that your average person could do it)...
