It's supposed to be sunny here, wot? The ethos of the group specifically mentions an affinity for photos, so here goes.
My name is Barnaby - I go by barnz around the interweb and some people in Black Rock City know me as Hoopy. (If you can find BRC on a map you are trying too hard).
I've been a fan of music and sound ever since my parents got http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51CrP3qyEGL._SL500_AA240_.jpg and http://www.retrojunk.com/img/tvshows/captain_tennille_920.jpg
on Open Reel Tape in the early 70s.
I went on to become more of a fan of http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w112/pencil_artist/Tom_Waits_c_Anton_Corbijn.jpg and http://www.discorder.ca/oldsite/features/images/05augnegativeland1.jpg
I studied Film in school (which took me from the midwest to Santa Cruz, CA), focusing on sound, and went into the hifi business (back in the midwest)after I deemed I was finished with Higher Education.
I've been bumping around that world ever since, with occasional sabbaticals into technology (got mildly lucky once, failed big time the next go).
I currently work for an importer/distributor of European hifi products.
My system is primarily vinyl-based, but this year I introduced a Mac Mini and a plasma monitor to the mix and I am working at getting that to be smooth (both operationally and acoustically!)
I like taking photos....http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1032/1347674421_4f0f8c7d20.jpg
My latest accomplishment is building a cornhole set http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3163/2549594151_2c0b258f66.jpg (http://www.flickr.com/photos/barnfry/2549594151/)
(It's a game where midwesterners throw bags of corn at a hole in a board. For some reason it's actually fun)
I am married (http://brassmonkeybrassband.com/private.htm), (*she's the one in the white dress) and my wife wants to go to bed now. No more computer for me!
