Cinescare
Cinescare ambitiously presents over 80 years of horror cinema as a text from which important lessons can be learned. Cinescare examines the narratives, characters and themes of genre film through a sociological lens. By fusing issues of class, gender, religion, family and sexuality into a crucible, Cinescare recasts horror cinema as not only entertaining storytelling, but culturally important storytelling. I publish, edit, and write for Cinescare.

Friedman
A loose "band" of sonic soundscapes filling in the spaces between artfully articulated brain-droppings.
BIKINIRADIO
A rock band. We formed this in 2005 and have spent some time in a studio, some time on stage. It's primarily a writing/concept project. I think it has its roots in my love of the melodic structures/energy/impact of bands like Bauhaus, NIN, Marilyn Manson, and Iron Maiden.
