About Mike
I admit, this page has disconcertingly little about myself. I’ll get to it as soon as I can.
Purpose
I am an artist, first and foremost. Regardless of my intellectual pursuits, my philosophical beliefs, and my ideas about “fun”, I am an artist most of all.
As a writer, I’ve published or performed a number of short works (“The Mink”, “Tantalus Road”, “Jarring Tadpoles”, “The Dreadlock”) and poems (“Desperate Afternoons”, “The River Lethe”, etc.) in anticipation of my current work in progress, As We Know It…
As a composer, songwriter, and vocalist, I’ve completed a number of unique albums (In Exile, Mirrors on Hallowed Ground, Planar Burgs, Future Music Now, etc.) which I am currently in the process of mastering and releasing to the public, again, in anticipation of my forthcoming work, Behind the Eyes.
As a game designer, I am currently in the process of play-testing Labyrinth Life, an infinitely varied board game inspired by the work of Jorge Luis Borges and William Poundstone.
